- Why ReSEAcled?
The world's first Plastic Negative poo bags that save ocean-bound plastic.
- Award winning eco-friendly poo bags designed for general waste and dog poo bins.
- Made from 50% recycled HDPE plastic (e.g. old shampoo and milk bottles) and 25% natural oyster shell waste, certified by the Global Recycled Standard.
-
Certified Plastic Negative by rePurpose Global.
Each poo bag funds the collection and recycling of one ocean-bound plastic bottle through Pet Impact's partnership with Ocean Co. This equates to removing 5 times more plastic from nature than used in the poo bags, giving them (and you!) a Plastic Negative footprint.

Waste-based poo bags are better for our planet.
Stop creating new waste by choosing poo bags that re-use it! Reusing waste has clear evidence-based benefits, such as cutting carbon emissions, reducing energy use, conserving scarce resources and minimising waste sent to landfill and incineration.
-
Putting a sustainable waste stream to better use.
Oysters are widely considered a sustainable food source, but millions of tonnes of waste shells are landfilled every year. Adding waste shells to poo bags reduces the use of fossil fuels and improves the sustainability of the aquaculture industry. Processing the shells also provides a livelihood for local communities.

Guided by science, not market trends.
Compostable and biodegradable poo bags do not reliably breakdown as claimed, still contribute to microplastics and can be just as bad, if not worse, than normal plastic - especially if not disposed of correctly (i.e. in compost). Learn more below.
Are these bags biodegradable?
No. But research shows that even 'biodegradable' plastic does not biodegrade in the real world! Nothing properly biodegrades in landfill either, which is sadly where they'll likely end up! But since these bags are made from waste that was already destined to go to landfill, you're helping reduce the amount of new waste going there.
Should I buy these if I compost my dog's poo?
No, if you compost your dog's poo you are better off without any poo bags or using certified home compostable poo bags.
How thick are they?
15 microns thick.
Where should they be disposed?
General waste at home or dog poo bins. While they are technically recyclable, they cannot be recycled due to their contents!
What can we improve on?
The bags use 25-30% virgin plastic. We have experimented with 100% recycled content but unfortunately the strength and quality were compromised. We are working towards 100% recycled content in the future.
However, these current bags are still better than compostable/biodegradable bags that can include 50-80% virgin fossil fuel based plastic (PBAT) or non-recycled bags.
While not perfect, until we have the infrastructure to compost dog poo on a large scale and biodegradable poo bags that are genuinely made of sustainable materials, we believe these ReSEAcled Poo Bags are the least harmful option for our planet.
- Reducing waste going to landfill & incineration: Instead of making new plastic from virgin materials, we re-use waste that was already destined for landfill and incineration, meaning less new waste is sent there.
- - Smaller carbon footprint: Recycling plastic requires significantly less energy and produces significantly fewer carbon emissions during production.
- - Sustainable renewable content with a social impact: Every year, millions of tonnes of oyster shell waste is thrown away. We're giving it a second life! Unlike plant-based plastic, oysters are widely considered sustainable as they're vastly less resource intensive, don't require GMOs and don't compete with human food production or contribute to deforestation. Processing the shells also provides a livelihood for local communities.

Let customers speak for us
Thanks for yet another wonderful selection of doggie treats. The dogs love them. I'd appreciate a bit more choice of small treats as rewards when we're out, but apart from that, nothing but positive thoughts...
Happy to be thinking of the environment whilst doing this pick up 💩
It's a good feeling that for a few pence more we can use a product that is so much better for our environment. The bags are strong, a good size and thankfully not impregnated with sickly perfume.
a sturdy and attractive bag, I love the belt clip as an alternative to the shoulder strap
So pleased to have found this product. We recently rehomed a former Bosnian street dog, and needed something to help toilet train him. I had initially purchased disposable pads, which were ok, but throwing so much away felt really poor environmental practice. These pads are perfect! Really absorbent, and they’ve coped with, well, messier accidents as well, quick hose down and in the washer, good as new. They provide good area coverage, and have been used to help crate train too. He doesn’t chew at them, which is also great. Thanks for helping our dog and to ease my mind ☺️
Our elderly Cairn has decided she's continent again so the pads haven't been put to the test (yet!) They are, however, very good quality and well made so should be fit for purpose. Arrived on time and helpful info from this ethical business. Thanks
I bought these about 3 months ago and use them every day and they get washed every day sometimes twice, unfortunately, but they really work and protect the soft bed that they cover which is much more difficult to wash.
I would highly recommend these for anyone with an old dog.
Also I use washing liquid and softener that is automatically added in my machine and then I tumble dry on a gentle mode and they are still as good as new
I had no idea of the real impact of compostable and biodegradable poo bags! I am pleased to be helping the environment and a small business at the same time.
Strong, roomy and a nice colour - but most of all Eco-friendly. Recommended!
Very high quality bags which don’t feel rubbery like other biodegradable bags ill be buying on subscription when I run out of the ones I’ve already bought
They work. Pip has now become incontinent. Vat took her urine sample, it had blood in and she may have kidney disease. Back there on Friday. Only thing I’d say is, could they be thicker, more absorbent and could you move on to washable nappies?
I heard a radio programme about how a good choice for dog poo bags was to choose recycled plastic bags so I sent off for a box of these ReSEAcled Poo bags and am very happy with the product. Will definitely be switching over from my current brand to this one. Easy to separate and a good thickness.
Superb size and strength for all dog sizes, especially large dogs. They arrive in super fast time and you know you are doing a good deed for our oceans if you buy these!
A brilliant product.
