Biodegradable/Water-Solulable Bags
BagCo fully supports the green environment objectives in eliminating hazardous effects of plastic waste from our environment. In line with this initiative we have been providing environmentally friendly and 100% biodegradable disposable shopping bags as well as Water-Soluble Laundry Bags as means of infection control for healthcare and hospitality providers.
- Water-Soluble Laundry Bag
Water Soluble Laundry bags are specifically made for hospital and healthcare industry operators. These bags are made from water-soluble PVA film, which is a green environmental friendly material and it is 100% Bio-degradable! Once the bag is dissolved in the washing process, the solution will be decomposed to water and carbon dioxide.
The Water-Soluble Laundry Bags are intended to enhance infection control processes in handling and transferring infected linens or other materials. These bags are impermeable to bacteria and virus. They are totally biodegradable and will not leave any environmental pollutant residue. Water-Soluble Laundry Bags are available in:
- 100% Water-Soluble Laundry Bag
- Laundry Bags with Water-soluble Strip
Application of 100% Water-Soluble Laundry Bag

Application of Water-Soluble Strip Laundry Bag
BagCo Water-Soluble Strip Laundry Bag is made from PE film with Water-Soluble strip tape and tie-back cord. This is an ideal and most cost effective laundry bag for eliminating potential risks of cross contamination of infected laundry.
- The Water-Soluble Laundry Strip Bag is filled and tied with the Water-Soluble Tie-Back cord and transported to the laundry room. Infected contents of the bag are kept inside of the bag eliminating or reducing the potential risk of cross contamination of airborne bacteria, infectious body fluids, blood borne pathogens etc.
- The Water-Soluble Laundry Strip Bags is placed inside the washing machine without further handling. The Water-Soluble seam/strip and the Water-Soluble tie-back will dissolve in water thus exposing the contents for washing.
