// Why Paper

The Recycling Route Everyone Already Understands

No sorting confusion, no specialist streams — paper goes where paper goes.

Kerbside, the easy way

Your customer drops the bag in the paper recycling — the bin they already use every week. No checking council rules for flexible plastics, no store drop-off schemes to explain on your label.

FSC paper, real barrier

Made from FSC-certified paper with advanced barrier properties that protect coffee and dry foods — the natural look and feel of paper without giving up freshness protection.

The flat valve trick

Roasting fresh? Choose the flat degassing valve version — it vents CO2 like a traditional valve. Customers peel it off before disposal and the bag stays completely paper-stream recyclable.

Prefer a plastic-stream route with a higher barrier? See our recyclable mono-PE bags, or compare everything on the materials page.

* End-of-life outcomes depend on local recycling infrastructure. Check your region's accepted streams.
