The special NaKu organic carrier bags, made from plant-based raw materials, offer you and your customers many advantages! NaKu bags are a cost-effective alternative for supermarkets and food retailers, and unlike most paper carrier bags, they're also moisture-resistant.
A study by BOKU shows that fruit, vegetables and bread stay fresh longer in NaKu bags. This is ideal for your fruit and vegetable department! This freshness function means that less valuable food is thrown away. This also saves CO2emissions and thus protects our climate.
NaKu bags and carrier bags are made from natural, GMO-free, and rapidly renewable raw materials, are 100% compostable, and free of pollutants and heavy metals. By using NaKu bags, you as a grocery store are making a significant contribution to our shared environment!
The NaKu organic carrier bags are available in two sizes in the shirt-style carrier bag design. These can also be individually printed for supermarkets and food retailers. You can find out more about pack sizes and minimum order quantities below.
These renewable and compostable bags can also be used in Austria to distribute to customers in (food) stores. They are not subject to the Austrian plastic bag ban, as they can still be distributed as lightweight, biodegradable carrier bags. More information on Plastic bag ban you will find here.

The advantages of carrier bags based on plant-based raw materials
moisture resistance
Unlike most paper bags, bioplastic carrier bags are moisture-resistant. Paper carrier bags are often also coated.
Food stays fresh longer
A study by BOKU shows that fruit, vegetables and bread stay fresh longer in NaKu bags. Thanks to this freshness-keeping function, less valuable food is thrown away.
GMO-free and free from pollutants and heavy metals
To produce the starch, we only use non-GMO corn from European agriculture. To protect health and the environment, we do not use any harmful additives such as bisphenol A, antimony or phthalates.
Fast-growing raw material
The starch used to make the organic bags comes from fast-growing corn, while paper is produced from slow-growing trees.
Compostable
The natural plastic is compostable according to DIN standard EN 13432 and is TÜV-certified. In industrial compost, the composting process of the bag takes about 3-5 days. In home compost, with regular circulation and warm weather, it takes 9-12 weeks until the bag is completely composted.
energy consumption in production
The production of paper bags and carrier bags requires significantly more energy than the production of organic carrier bags made of bioplastic. Furthermore, the paper manufacturing process - with all its additives, bleaching and drying processes - requires an enormous amount of water.
Price advantage over paper carrier bags and sacks
The NaKu organic carrier bags are significantly lighter than paper bags. This means we need significantly fewer raw materials in production. We pass this price advantage on to you.
Exempt from the Austrian plastic bag ban
As a lightweight, biodegradable carrier bag that is thinner than 15 µm, it may continue to be distributed by retailers.

In your supermarket or grocery store, avoid filling fruit juices, smoothies, dry goods, etc. in conventional bottles and cans based on petroleum plastic. In contrast to PET bottles or PET cans, NaKu organic bottles and organic cans are made from plants and lactic acid. They therefore do not contain any harmful plasticizers such as bisphenol A, phthalates or antimony and are made of 100% bioplastic (PLA).
While oil is becoming increasingly scarce and expensive, natural, rapidly renewable resources offer an important source of raw materials.
NaKu organic bottles and cans are also compostable according to DIN 13432! Unlike PET, for example, they do not produce permanent, harmful microplastics during decomposition.1In addition, the NaKu PLA/rPLA bottles and PLA/rPLA cans made of natural plastic are 7% lighter than conventional petroleum plastic! Therefore, in addition to all other environmentally friendly aspects, COXNUMX is also saved during transport.2 saved. Compared to bottles or cans made of glass, this weight advantage has an even greater impact.
The NaKu bottle made from renewable raw materials is available in various standard sizes for supermarkets and the food trade. For larger quantities, it is also possible to produce it with your individual bottle geometry, as well as to color it. Sleeving is also possible for smaller quantities. Learn more about the NaKu organic bottles here.
The NaKu organic can is also available in different sizes for supermarkets and food retailers. For larger quantities, it is also possible to produce your individual can geometry, as well as coloring it. Sleeving is also possible for smaller quantities. Learn more about NaKu Biodoses here.
Due to the natural raw material, NaKu bottles and cans are not suitable for hot filling and are not dishwasher safe. The maximum operating temperature is 55°C. In many cases, depending on the contents, wiping or warm washing is sufficient for further use. If this is not possible, thermal recycling only produces as much CO2 as the plant absorbed or bound it during growth. This represents a further advantage compared to the thermal recycling of bottles or cans based on petroleum plastic.
rPET (recycled PET) is currently a hotly debated topic1, especially for bottles and cans. The infographic "Is there anything greener than rPET?" shows a material comparison between rPET and rPLA (recycled PLA/recycled bioplastic).

Did you know that most conventional customer cards, bonus cards and employee cards are still made of PVC? PVC as a card material is particularly problematic from an environmental point of view.
We offer the environmentally friendly alternative with our sustainable customer card made of sugar (bioplastic). These cards are made from rapidly renewable plant-based raw materials and are an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional PVC cards.
Our sugar card is made of sugar and starch and already contains 15% recycled bioplastic. The production of the sugar card produces 40% less CO2 compared to PVC cards. This applies to the card itself without taking into account any built-in antennas or chips.
The material of the sugar card is compostable according to DIN 13432. The compostability of the entire card depends on the built-in antenna technology and the printing inks used.
A project to recycle the card is underway. A minimum amount of around 1 tonne of material is required for recycling. With a card weight of 5 grams, that's around 240.000 cards. Other products made from bioplastics can also be recycled.
From the white blank card to the refined customer card or bonus card – everything is possible! Of course also with barcode, chip and other functions.
