Dog Waste Bags South Melbourne

Dog poop left behind can get washed into South Melbourne gutters, which is a health hazard and causes pollution on the beaches, in the rivers, lakes and creeks Australia-wide. But this can be avoided if you pick up your dog’s poop using dog waste bags manufactured by our South Melbourne company, Biogone. Biogone has dog waste poop bags that are landfill-biodegradable or home-compostable, for you to hygienically pick up the poop while being a better option for the environment.

At Biogone in South Melbourne, we make a range of dog waste bags, dog waste bag dispensers, refill rolls and bulk dog waste bags and accessories that are either home or landfill-compostable or biodegradable in a landfill. Making it simple for you to pick up dog poop and help the environment.

We do not use or support degradable or fragmented additives in our products. Our Home Compostable bags are certified AS5810 biodegradable and compostable.

Biogone home compostable dog waste bags are manufactured using plant-based material. They are certified in accordance with Australian/NZ home compostable standard AS5810-2010. The bags also biodegrade in commercial composting facilities and landfill, breaking down into organic matter and producing a natural fertiliser (with no microplastics). Can be disposed of in a landfill, not recyclable.

• NB: AS5810 certification does not cover the possible presence of toxic or non-compostable residues from using it, i.e. from the dog feces

Biogone landfill-biodegradable dog waste bags are manufactured from 50 per cent recycled material. Once disposed of in a microbe-rich landfill, biodegradation is accelerated about 90 per cent faster than conventional plastic dog waste bags and produces an organic matter which is a natural fertiliser, without harmful microplastics.

Our Biogone South Melbourne range includes small landfill biodegradable and home compostable dog poop bags, large and extra large sizes, depending on the breed of dog you own.

Traditional plastic that takes hundreds of years to break down is combined with an organic additive to make landfill-biodegradable products. However, this plastic must be exposed to a microbe-rich landfill before it begins to break down. Biodegradation is achieved when microorganisms metabolise or break down the plastic’s molecular structure, producing humus-like organic matter which is a natural plant biogas and fertiliser.

At Biogone we believe if single-use plastics must be used, they should be made to be recyclable or to biodegrade where they will be disposed of in a landfill, commercial or home compost facility, in line with the 2025 National Plastic Plan.
