I found these earth friendly signages from the makers of Sani Sac Degradable Feminine Disposal Bags. This is an ideal product that companies can display in their restroom cubicles to avoid personal hygiene items being flushed down the toilet.

Price of this starts at $1.95.

Another one is this:

Price also starts at $1.95

I admire companies who has the heart for our mother earth. They do their share in saving our earth by innovative products that are cost effective and earth-friendly.

To go "green" is the ultimate goal of the company because they know that the need for fully degradable products is very important now.

Green Discovery #1: Uses of Sani Sac Degradable Disposal Bags

I am like this when I discover something new in the 'green' and 'organic' market, I blab on the product a lot.

Hubs and really found a way to purchase SANI SAC™ Degradable Disposal Bags. He drove all the way to Brewster from our place to directly purchase the product because I couldn't wait to try it! Hubby went home with a 10 Roll Case and a case of 36 white boxes for the girls when they go out.

The most important use of Sani Sac is to provide a dignified solution for proper disposal of feminine menstrual sanitary products. This is important with the girls because they tend to consume too much toilet paper during their menstrual periods so I simply hate it because known to many, tissue paper = trees. I am such an advocate of the 'Save the Trees' campaign so waste of toilet paper at home is such a big 'no no'.

Not only that, my husband finds a lot of uses for Sani Sac and like him, I know most men in this world will agree. Sani Sac handles anything that is messy and will eventually cause unwanted odors need to be contained and secured. The list of items that Sani Sac can secure includes, but is not limited to:

feminine sanitary napkins
bladder pads
baby and adult diapers (use larger size SANI SAC™)
tampons
condoms
sanitary wipes
dental floss
gauze
extracted teeth
hair
used bandages
cotton buds and pads
Q-tips
coffee grounds
items soiled with human bodily fluids or waste

All of these, if not properly disposed could cause a lot of potential problems to our household. And since Sani Sac is a biodegradable disposal bag, it's environmental friendly - the highest factor I am looking for in any product I purchase. It degrades in as little as 12 to 18 months, making it landfill-friendly.

Will talk more about Golden Group's other 'green' and 'earth-friendly' products next time!

Cheers,
Mary

Green Discovery #1: Sani Sac Degradable Feminine Disposal Bags

2009-06-27T16:46:00.000-07:00

Sunday morning. I heard my son screaming in his room, I then rushed upstairs only to find out that the toilet he and his sister share was flooded. I was really mad because it could mean additional strain on our budget. I’ll be charged $120 for the services of the plumber again. This isn’t the first time that this happened, in fact before the plumber used to see feminine wipes and hair blocking the pipes! The culprit this time? A feminine napkin! It’s been a constant problem in our household, with three daughters - it can never be avoided until I think of ways to actually help them secure their used feminine items secretly. That same day I called the plumber and yes, there goes my $120.

I brushed off the incident but lectured my daughters about this for the nth time. At the back of my mind I need to find the solution to the existing problem otherwise I’ll be shelling out $120 monthly for plumber’s services.

That same day my husband and I dined at a hotel in Manhattan and I noticed a different kind of thingie beside their toilet paper slot. Goodness, feminine disposal bags! I can’t believe I was actually seeing the answers to my prayers! I checked their products online and found that it’s $79.85 for a 10 roll case and each roll has 125 Degradable Double Ply Sanitary Disposal bags making it less $0.065 for each bag, not bad huh? Most importantly, it is “green”, meaning its environmental friendly! It feels good that buying products such as these I am helping not just my family but the environment as well.

I said, “Finally, the solution to our needs!” I’ll be ordering the Sani Sac™ Box – Case of 36 white boxes with 28 bags each so I can carry them around. It is important that we have disposal bags like these in a handy because we never know what’s we’re gonna be throwing, right?
