The problem

One brand. Too many different bags.

Do your brand's poly bags all have slightly different logos, environmental claims and even feel? If your clothing suppliers source their own poly bags, then this is likely the case.

It also means that to comply with the new EU PPWR packaging regulations, you'll be chasing compliance documentation from every bag manufacturer, via every clothing supplier. A nightmare.

A better way to supply

From fragmented sourcing to one trusted supply chain.

Frequently asked questions (FAQS)

The details, made simple.

What is Better Packaging's Direct-to-Supplier (DTS) model? ​

Direct-to-Supplier (DTS) is Better Packaging's model for garment poly bags: instead ofeach clothing supplier sourcing its own bags from its own manufacturer, BetterPackaging produces uniform, certified poly bags to the brand's specifications andmakes them available to every supplier through a single ordering portal. It replaces afragmented, multi-manufacturer supply chain with one certified product and onecompliance statement.​

Are Better Packaging's poly bags compliant with the EU's PPWR (Packaging andPackaging Waste Regulation)? ​

Yes. Every POLLAST!C poly bag produced under the DTS model is covered by a singlePPWR Declaration of Conformity issued by Better Packaging, so brands don't need tochase separate compliance documentation from each poly bag manufacturer theirsuppliers use.​

Are Better Packaging's poly bags compliant with SB 343 and SB 54?

Our POLLAST!C Poly Bags are made from 100% certified post consumer recycled (PCR) content so are eligible for eco-modulated EPR fees under SB 54, California's EPR scheme. The messaging on our own stock range of poly bags is compliant with SB 343's regulations and we will work with you on any custom packaging to ensure it is also compliant. 

As of 2027, we will not be stocking compostable poly bags in North America as AS 1201 means that no biodegradable bags, even if fully certified compostable, are permitted to carry compostability messaging in California. We will also be recommending our customers do not use custom-branded compostable poly bags in California. Read more here.

Can Better Packaging produce custom branded poly bags? ​

Yes. POLLAST!C poly bags are produced to each brand's own specification — includingbranding, size and print — so every supplier receives the same custom, on-brand bagrather than sourcing their own with inconsistent logos, colours or environmentalclaims.​

What is POLLAST!C made from? ​

POLLAST!C poly bags are made from 100% recycled Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP)—plastic waste recovered before it can reach the ocean.​

What certifications does POLLAST!C carry? ​

POLLAST!C is certified to both the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and OBP (OceanBound Plastic) certification, verifying its recycled content — in addition to the singlePPWR Declaration of Conformity that covers every bag produced under the DTS model.​

How do clothing suppliers order poly bags under the DTS model? ​

Once onboarded by Better Packaging, suppliers order directly through BetterPackaging's DTS ordering portal, available in native Chinese with Chinese-speakingsupport and local payment options including RMB, WeChat Pay andNihaoPay. Bagsare held in Better Packaging's warehouses in Asia, so suppliers can draw down stocklocally as needed.​

How does Better Packaging manage production and inventory? ​

Better Packaging manages production and warehoused inventory against pre-agreedminimum and maximum stock levels, and provides brands with regular impactreporting covering tonnes of OBP saved and carbon emissions reduction.​
