Restaurant bags bearing the Encore trade name have been produced in the USA with the three environmental ''Rs'' in mind: REDUCE, RECYCLE, & REUSE. Made locally with non-toxic (no lead, heavy metals or toxic chemicals) clean materials sourced from our own recycling center CPR³. The following Encore features will help you save on your cost and the environment:
	100% RECYCLABLE, RECYCLED solution REDUCES YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT Restaurant bags.com ensures that the highest recycled content is added to our bags, ranging from a minimum of 15% to 100% (PCR and PIR) recycled materials based on market availability. Contact us for higher recycled material content guarantees.
	ENVIRONMENTAL ADDITIVES that BREAK DOWN THE BAGS A unique additive can be added to the restaurant bags to accelerate the breakdown of the material while maintaining their recyclability. The carry out bags will maintain their 100% recyclability and standard shelf life until exposed to microbial environments (i.e. soil, sewers, and bacteria) where the bags can take approximately 9 months to 5 years to breakdown (labeling laws may apply).

	CERTIFIED CLEAN FDA approvals on restaurant bags for direct food contact can be provided through our ''ASI'' certified U.S. factory with a ''Superior'' rating for factory cleanliness.
