Why do my Compostable Mailer bags have a slight smell?
A high fructose content gives the compostable satchels their unique scent
If you notice a slight smell coming from our compostable mailer bags when they are brand new, don't worry! This is simply due to the natural fructose (plant sugar) content in the bags. To help reduce the smell, remove the bags from the pack and allow them to air out. It should dissipate quickly.
