SAN FRANCISCO-- Green Genius LLC, the maker of biodegradable plastic trash bags, launched a line of food storage products. The food storage bags biodegrade under landfill conditions just like the company's trash bags.
“We launched our drawstring trash bags and tall kitchen bags as our first biodegradable plastic product because we knew we could match the price and performance of regular trash bags,” said Sam Paul, Green Genius CEO. “What we didn’t know was whether we could actually launch a food bag that offered equivalent food protection and closure quality as the leading brands. That was a much higher hurdle, frankly, but we feel we’ve achieved just that.”
The new product line includes sandwich bags, snack bags, and freezer and storage bags (both in quart and gallon sizes). The freezer and food storage bags are available with either double zipper or slider seals. All Green Genius food bags are easy to open and easy to close and block out air to keep food fresh. The company also uses a minimum of 15 percent recycled plastic in every bag.
