The Compostable Microwave Steam Bags from Toastabags provide a quick and easy way to cook meat, fish and vegetables, from fresh or frozen, whilst retaining nutrients and flavour. Made from cellulose, not plastic, they are 100% compostable and zero waste.
If you’ve never tried Microwave Steam Bags before, they’re really simple to use:
- Cut food into similar sized pieces to ensure even cooking. No need to add water. Add butter and seasoning if required.
- Place food into the bag. Remove the peel strip on the flap, fold over and seal, making sure the fold is at least 3cm.
- Cook in the microwave for the length of time as indicated on the bag’s packaging. When cooking has finished, allow the bag to stand for approximately 30 seconds to allow steam to be released.
- Remove the bag from the microwave. Water may be present so keep the bag upright and pour off before serving.
- Dispose of the bag in your compost bin.
Please note, as the Steam Bags are made from a bio-based compostable material, they will degrade naturally over time. The bags should be used within one year of purchase.
Environmental Details
We know how difficult it can be to tell how much of an impact what you are buying has on the environment, and what effect switching to a more sustainable product has, so we have found out and compiled all of this information for you below.
The Toastabags Compostable Microwave Steam Bags replace plastic microwave steam bags.
The Food and Freezer Bags are made from 100% natural, plant based resources. Only the non-edible part of the plants is used, so no food resources are wasted.
Conventional microwave steam bags that are made from plastic take hundreds of years to break down in landfill, and when they do, they release microplastics which end up washing into the oceans, contaminating the food chain. This is in addition to the pollution caused by plastic production and extracting the oil that the plastic is made from. Compostable Microwave Steam Bags on the other hand are made from plants. They don't release any microplastics and and compost down within a few months, returning back to nature. The Bags are made from the non-edible part of plants grown for food, turning what would otherwise be a waste product into something useful.
The Food and Freezer Bags are packaged in a recyclable and compostable cardboard box.
When you have used your Microwave Steam Bags, they are suitable for home composting, so can be put in your compost bin. They can also be put into your food waste collection if your local council offer this service.
