MERIDA OPTIMUM Bags – Durable and Practical Waste Bags
The MERIDA OPTIMUM Bags category features sturdy, functional, and attractive waste bags made from high-quality LDPE (low-density polyethylene) and HDPE (high-density polyethylene) film. This combination ensures exceptional strength, flexibility, and tear resistance while remaining lightweight. The bags come in various capacities and thicknesses to meet individual needs.
Available sizes include 35 liters (50 × 60 cm), 70 liters (60 × 90 cm), and 120 liters (70 × 110 cm), with film thicknesses of 0.014 mm, 0.020 mm, and 0.025 mm. The colors of the MERIDA OPTIMUM bags facilitate waste sorting: blue for paper, red for mixed waste, and transparent for universal use or content inspection.
What Does the Blue Angel Certificate Mean?
Selected models, such as the 35-liter bags, carry the prestigious Blue Angel (Der Blaue Engel) certificate. This German eco-label is awarded to products that adhere to strict environmental standards. This certification ensures that the bags are made from high-quality recycled materials, consume minimal energy, and produce limited emissions. Choosing bags with this certification supports the circular economy and helps reduce your environmental impact.
Frequently Asked Questions about MERIDA OPTIMUM Bags
1. What is the difference between HDPE and LDPE film?
- HDPE is thinner and more resistant to stretching but makes a rustling sound, while LDPE is thicker, more flexible, and puncture-resistant. MERIDA OPTIMUM bags utilize the strengths of both materials to create a durable product.
2. How do I choose the right bag thickness?
- Thinner bags (approximately 0.014 mm) are suitable for lightweight waste like paper or plastic. For mixed or heavier waste, it is recommended to use thicker variants (0.020 mm or 0.025 mm), which provide greater resistance to mechanical damage.
3. What capacities are available?
- MERIDA OPTIMUM bags are offered in capacities of 35 liters, 70 liters, and 120 liters. The appropriate size should match the bin size to ensure a snug fit that prevents slipping during use.
4. Do the colors of the bags matter?
- Yes, the colors assist with waste segregation: blue for paper, red for mixed waste, and transparent for content control or universal use.
5. Do MERIDA OPTIMUM bags fit bins with lids?
- Yes, the flexible film and various sizes allow the bags to fit easily into bins with lids, enhancing aesthetics and hygiene.
6. Are MERIDA OPTIMUM bags environmentally friendly?
- Yes, particularly the models certified by the Blue Angel, which are made from recycled materials and produced through processes that minimize environmental impact.
