We Love It Because: Onya’s commitment to sustainability extends to their packaging which is made from post-consumer recycled material and printed with water based inks so it is suitable for both recycling or composting.

Brand

In 2004, the founder Jon Brousson, was in search for a meaningful, environmental change that can make a difference in reducing the prevalence of single use plastic. He created his first reusable shopping bag that quickly invoked interest with friends, family and even strangers during his shopping trips. His humble beginnings have seen the company grow to offer reusable shopping bags, produce bags, backpacks and coffee cups and one of the highest quality stainless steel drink bottle ranges on the Australian market. Onya’s products are 100% recyclable and made out of recycled material such as rPET, a fabric produced from recycled plastic water bottles. Being a B Corp certified company, their products are verified to be responsibly made, both ethically and sustainably, in China. Onya is 100% Australian owned and designed.

Product

Onya Compostable Dog Waste Bags are certified compostable to Australian, European, USA & Japanese standards, which means they have been independently assessed to break down to virtually undetectable levels in the soil and are deemed “worm safe” with no micro plastic residues left behind and will break down within around 12 weeks.

They are Palm Oil Free, made from 100% GMO free renewable plants and are free from any plastic additives such as Polypropylene, Polyethylene, Polystyrene & PVC. Each dog waste disposal bag solution includes the carry pouch along with 30 100% GMO free renewable plant based compostable dog waste disposal bags and are easily refillable with 30 refill packs, so you can always take care of your business no matter where life takes you.

In general waste facilities, due to the lack of necessary microbes found in these facilities it can take 6-12 months or more for the bags to break down to their natural cellulose beginnings.

Their bags are also certified “home compostable” and can be used in this manner, but like a general waste facility will simply take longer to break down if not hot composted.
