Are the disks biodegradable?

There are advertised to be but do take a while. We had fragments on the ground for a few months.

Sure, if you want to wait 1000 years. They are made of steel with a zinc coating, so no, not biodegradeable

You got me curious enough that I went and checked the end label. "Biodegradable", and New Rochelle, New York are printed on it but nothing relative to your question.

Yes, but they are very flimsy plastic. You have to assemble them with a put tab A into slot B type construction. I had to re-enforce them at the corners with duct tape. Having said that, they have done well for storing CD's, DvD's and computer disks. I would not buy them again.

The bags are biodegradable but the box doesnt say anything about CA standards.

These bags are NOT compostable or biodegradable! Earth friendly they are not either as they use a chemical to break the plastic down faster...From the company: "Our bags are are neither. We plan to have a 100% compostable line in the next couple of months so check back with us."

No they are not. Just include the word biodegradable in your search there are plenty on Amazon.

It is the reason I looked into and purchased them. The national brand of zip-type top bags claim their bags are biodegradable, but I felt paper bags would be more so; so, I tried them.

Yes. It is Plastic or cellophane. And a tab for the flap on the back . also the back side folds are on the outside -so they do not catch on the CD/DVD when you try to insert a disc. They are just fine for my use of storing DVD movies that I make. Does that help you ?Perry

After reading article last year, I don't believe these are biodegradable, just flushable (like it says).

As far as I know these disks are for dvd burners to be played on computer or dvd player. Hope this helps.

Yes, look for the Safe for septic tank logo on Ecover product to check for septic tank safety. All of their products are completely biodegradable. :)

They are worthless, no matter where made, if they are 8X. I do not know where they are made and I have not had good experiences with any Verbatim disks. I would not buy shiny disks by choice. I prefer white matte finish. Good luck in your search, and with the disks if you locate them.

They have been around for many years. I got on to them at the local dog park and then sent for them via mail. They are biodegradable and so easy to use.

I don't think so...it is super thin like the bio-degradables, but can't say for certain, which probably means no.

The product is reclaimed wood pulp and I compost discarded litter, so yes, it's biodegradable. I don't know about flushing it. You don't want to have plumbing issues! The company phone number for questions is 360-734-7415, or go to carefresh.com.

I have checked the packaging and the bag and can find nothing about being biodegradable. I was under that impression from another reviewer I guess, but nothing is said to bear that out.
