Operation steps:
1) BIODEGRADABLE
Soluble bags are often marketed as biodegradable laundry bags for the reason that they completely disintegrate during the wash (in the case of fully soluble bags), with no plastic products going to landfills or becoming waste materials in the environment. This reduces the plastic waste output of organisations with bulk wash requirements, minimising dependence on single-use plastic bags.
2) ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
When they dissolve, disintegrating laundry bags leave behind no toxic chemicals or traces in the water. Process water can be safely released into the mains without additional treatment to remove environmentally harmful compounds.
3) AVOIDS CROSS-CONTAMINATION
Soluble laundry bags are designed to dissolve at a certain temperature threshold (25°C for cold water bags, and 65°C for hot water bags). Below this threshold, the bags are strong and durable and completely watertight, making it easy for organisations to isolate contaminated laundry items. Storing your contaminated laundry in a soluble laundry bag removes the risk of cross-contamination with other laundry and avoids the problem of leaks and spills.
4) IMPROVED HEALTH AND SAFETY
Using a soluble laundry bag avoids the necessity for staff to directly handle contaminated items when loading or unloading a commercial washing machine, reducing the exposure of employees to biohazards.
5) ECONOMICAL
Soluble laundry bags are cheap to produce and procure, making them an affordable option for high-volume commercial or NHS laundries with bulk purchase requirements. Not only are the bags cheap at the point of sale, but as they dissolve on use, they do not require additional expenditure on waste management and recycling. The same bags can be used throughout the wash cycle, including during transport and storage.
