Great Wrap is best disposed of through industrial composting, where it breaks down in 180 days without harmful residues. Even in a landfill, it decomposes faster than traditional plastic, leaving no microplastics behind.
- 30 days in industrial compost
- 90 days in home compost
- Only breaks down when exposed to microorganisms; it won't deteriorate on a pallet
Inform the recipients of Great Wrap to set aside a large compost bin for used wrap. Once full, they can contact their local commercial compost collection service for options.
Additionally, there are 120 organic recyclers in Australia that can collect Great Wrap if it's separated from traditional stretch film.
