But what exactly are these bags made of? For the most part, bread bags are made from kraft paper. A packaging solution made from wood pulp, which gives it that characteristic brown color.

So what do we do with these bags when we finish our bread? As they can be made from two different materials at the same time, plastic and paper, which container should we throw them in? We tell you.

Of course! One of the advantages of kraft paper is that it is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly packaging option and perfect for transporting your loaves of bread or other food!

If it is not possible to separate the two materials, you will have to assess how much paper and plastic is in the packaging, i.e., which material is in greater quantity. If it is a bag that only shows part of the product, you should throw it in the blue container, but if most of the product is visible and it has more plastic than paper, you should throw it in the yellow one.
