20L–60L Medium Bin Liners for Standard Indoor Bins
Medium compostable bin liners are designed for bins that sit between small caddies and larger commercial waste containers.
Our medium range focuses on 20L–60L bins, including common kitchen, pantry, food preparation and general indoor waste bins.
The right liner should be selected by actual bin dimensions rather than capacity alone. Two 30L or 50L bins can have different widths, depths and heights, so buyers should confirm the bin measurements before approving a production size.
For small benchtop food-waste caddies, see our 5L–10L Compostable Kitchen Caddy Liners.
If your sourcing requirement is based primarily on food scraps, organic-waste collection or food-waste programs rather than a specific 20L–60L bin size, see our Compostable Food Waste Bags range.

Medium Compostable Bin Liner Sizes: 20L to 60L
We manufacture medium bin liners in standard and made-to-spec dimensions. Capacity is useful as a starting point, but final bag width and length should be matched to the actual bin.
| Capacity | Common Application | B2B Specification Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 20L | Small standard kitchen bins, pantry bins | Fit, thickness, roll count |
| 30L | Household and office kitchen bins | Bag dimensions, seal strength |
| 40L | Medium kitchen and preparation-area bins | Wet-load performance, thickness |
| 50L / 13 Gallon | Standard kitchen and indoor waste bins | Fit, roll packaging, private label |
| 60L | Larger kitchen and food-preparation bins | Strength, seal construction, load requirements |
Custom dimensions are available when standard sizes do not match the buyer’s bin.
How to Choose the Right Compostable Bin Liner Size
A bin marked “20L”, “30L” or “50L” does not automatically determine the correct liner dimensions.
For OEM and wholesale projects, we normally review five points before confirming the bag size.
Bin width and depth: The liner must open wide enough to fit securely around the rim.
Bin height: Extra length is normally required for the bag to reach the bottom while leaving enough material around the top edge.
Required overhang: Buyers may need additional film for folding over the rim, tying or handling.
Waste type: Dry office waste and wet kitchen waste place different demands on film thickness and seal strength.
Packing format: Bag dimensions and thickness affect roll diameter, bags per roll, carton quantity and overall packing efficiency.
For new projects, send us the bin dimensions, a technical drawing, photographs or a physical bin sample. Fitting samples can then be checked before mass production.
Compostable Bin Liners for Kitchen and Indoor Organic-Waste Bins
Medium compostable bin liners can be configured for 20L–60L kitchen bins and indoor organic-waste bins where the liner needs to contain mixed or moisture-bearing waste.
Typical contents may include kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, fruit and vegetable trimmings, leftovers and general kitchen waste.
For these applications, the important specification is not simply whether the material is compostable. Buyers should also evaluate:
- Film thickness and consistency
- Bottom-seal strength
- Resistance to punctures
- Performance with wet loads
- Bag-to-bin fit
- Roll perforation quality
- Storage conditions and shelf life
These factors are especially important when developing compostable kitchen bin liners for retail or institutional programs.
If your project covers a broader food-scrap collection program across multiple bag capacities, our Compostable Food Waste Bags page explains the use-case and certification considerations in more detail.
Bag Opening and Bottom Seal Options
The bag structure can be selected according to the bin design, user handling requirements and target cost.
| Option | Description | Typical Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Open Top / Flat Opening | Simple open-top liner without integrated handles | Efficient for standard roll-packed bin liners |
| Tie Handle / Vest Handle | Integrated handles provide easier closing and carrying | Useful where handling convenience is important |
| Wave Top | Extended areas of film at the opening can be tied after use | Alternative closure format for selected markets |
| Flat Seal Bottom | Straight heat-sealed bottom construction | Simple construction for suitable loads |
| Star Seal Bottom | Folded bottom construction distributes the load across the base | Often selected where improved fit and wet-load performance are required |
The correct construction should be confirmed through samples against the intended waste load.
Performance Requirements for Medium Bin Liners
A compostability certificate does not determine whether a liner will perform well in a specific bin.
Physical performance should be approved separately against the intended specification.
For medium bin liner projects, we can evaluate factors such as film thickness uniformity, tensile strength, puncture resistance, seal integrity, load-bearing performance and roll separation.
For kitchen and moisture-bearing waste, particular attention should be paid to bottom-seal integrity and wet-load performance.
Increasing thickness is not always the only solution. Correct bag dimensions, film formulation and seal construction also affect how the finished liner performs.
Certified Compostable Bin Liner Options
Certified configurations are available for buyers supplying different international markets.
Depending on the finished specification and target market, relevant standards and certification programs may include:
| Market / Composting Route | Common Reference |
|---|---|
| Europe | EN 13432 / OK compost INDUSTRIAL |
| United States | ASTM D6400 / BPI |
| Australia | AS 4736 |
| Home Composting Programs | AS 5810 / OK compost HOME where applicable |
Certification must be checked against the finished product configuration.
Bag thickness, film formulation, color, printing ink, additives and other components may affect whether a particular finished liner falls within an existing certificate or approved scope.
For private-label projects, certification marks should only be placed on artwork after the applicable scope and mark-use requirements have been confirmed.

Who Buys 20L–60L Medium Compostable Bin Liners?
This product range is developed for B2B buyers rather than individual retail consumers.
Typical customers include distributors, packaging importers, private-label brands, foodservice suppliers, hospitality suppliers, institutional procurement programs and companies developing their own compostable bin-liner ranges.
The 20L–60L category is particularly useful when a buyer wants a defined medium bin liner range based on capacity and fit, rather than a product range organised primarily around a waste stream.

FAQ-Medium Compostable Bin Liners
This page focuses on 20L–60L bins. Actual liner dimensions should be selected according to the bin width, depth, height and required overhang rather than capacity alone.
A 20L label is only a starting point because bin shapes vary. Measure the bin width, depth and height, then allow additional liner material for the rim and required overhang. For OEM projects, we can review your bin dimensions before confirming the bag size.
Yes. A 13 gallon bin is approximately 49 litres, so it falls within our 20L–60L medium range. Because 13 gallon bins vary in shape, the finished liner dimensions should still be confirmed against the actual bin.
They can be designed for standard 20L–60L kitchen bins. For moisture-bearing or heavier kitchen waste, buyers should select suitable film thickness and seal construction and test the finished liner under actual use conditions.
No. Our Kitchen Caddy Liners focus on small 5L–10L benchtop food-waste caddies. This Medium Bin Liners page focuses on standard 20L–60L bins.
Medium bin liners are defined mainly by bin capacity and fit, with this range covering 20L–60L bins.
Compostable food waste bags are defined mainly by what they collect. They may be used across different capacities in food-scrap, organic-waste, retail or collection programs.
Buyers sourcing by bin size should use this Medium Bin Liners range. Buyers sourcing primarily by food-waste application can review our Compostable Food Waste Bags range.
Yes. OEM projects can include custom dimensions, thickness, color, bag printing, bags per roll, paper core or coreless rolls, retail boxes, paper bands, barcodes, cartons and other private-label requirements.
Thickness depends on bag dimensions, waste weight, moisture, sharp contents, film formulation and required performance. Instead of selecting thickness alone, we recommend evaluating the complete bag specification through samples before mass production.
Yes. Samples can be supplied for checking material feel, dimensions, fit, tear-off performance and general bag performance before confirming the bulk specification.
