Say goodbye to plastic bags forever with these eco-friendly, reusable string bags made from organic cotton. It's ideal for carrying groceries, shopping, and much more.
Crafted from 100% organic cotton, these ethically-produced bags have undergone rigorous testing by Which?. They can support weights of up to 40kg, showcasing their exceptional strength and durability.
The botanical range of string bags is certified under the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), ensuring that no chemical pesticides or fertilizers are used in the fabric production process. Additionally, farmers must work in safe conditions and receive a fair minimum wage.
These string bags from Turtle Bags are dyed using natural organic materials like pomegranate, sea salt, and the madder plant. Why choose natural dyes? The vegetable-based dyes are non-toxic and biodegradable. They contribute to less water pollution, are gentle on the skin, and, as an added bonus, any solid waste produced can be transformed into natural compost.
It is recommended to wash using a cool wash only before use to prevent staining on light-coloured clothing.

faqs
Is Bumboo toilet paper suitable for septic tanks and composting toilets?
Yes, all of our toilet paper is thoroughly tested for disintegration, so it is suitable for use with both these systems.
Is Bumboo suitable for sensitive skin
Yes! Our bamboo toilet tissue has the benefit of being naturally super soft, hypoallergenic, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, so it’s great for all skin types, and doesn’t need any chemical enhancers such as softening additives, chemical scents or dyes. It’s also free from any of the chemicals associated with recycled paper, such as de-inking agents and BPA.
Is your toilet roll chemical-free?
Bumboo is certified by FIDRA for being PFA free, which means that we have no forever chemicals in our products.
Our white paper is bleached using a mix of oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, in a process that is totally chlorine free (TCF), and is generally considered one of the most environmentally safe ways to bleach paper.
We now also offer unwhitened options, for those wishing to minimize their environmental impact further.
Is your packaging plastic free?
Yes! Being plastic free is very important to us, and has been an integral part of our mission from the outset. We studied many packaging options, including so-called environmentally friendly plastic options such as oxy-degradable plastic. However, given the unrealistic conditions needed for such plastics to degrade, we felt that paper was the most environmentally sound choice. We also took care to ensure that no plastic was present in our packaging tape, opting to use a kraft paper based eco packaging tape reinforced with glass fibres.
Our paper wraps are made from FSC certified paper and printed with soybean based inks. Our cartons are made from recycled paper and printed with soybean inks. All packaging is fully recyclable and compostable (although we would always encourage you to reuse packaging as much as possible before choosing one of these options.)
