Kitchen Caddy Liners for 5L-10L Food Waste Caddies
Kitchen caddy liners are small liners made for benchtop food waste caddies. They are commonly used to collect food scraps before the waste is moved to an outdoor organics bin or another approved collection system.
These liners are not designed for standard kitchen trash bins. For 20L-60L bins, view our Medium Bin Liners (20L–60L)
Common B2B applications include:
- Municipal food waste and FOGO programs
- Retail and private-label product lines
- Food waste starter kits
- School and institutional organics programs
- Importer and distributor supply programs
Material and Compostability Options
Material selection depends on the required strength, storage conditions, target market, disposal route, and intended compostability claim.
Film formulations may include:
- PLA: a polymer used in many compostable film formulations
- PBAT: a flexible polymer used to improve film handling and strength
- Plant-based starch components: materials used in selected compostable blends
A raw-material certificate does not automatically certify every finished kitchen caddy liner. The thickness, color, printing ink, additives, and seal structure must fall within the relevant certificate or test scope.
Industrial composting and home composting are different claims. A liner certified for industrial composting should not be described as home compostable without separate supporting certification.
Compostable plastics also require suitable collection and processing conditions. The European Commission explains that compostable plastics normally need specific end-of-life conditions and collection systems.
Capacities and Custom Fit
Caddy capacity alone does not confirm the correct liner dimensions. A 5L, 8L, or 10L caddy from one supplier may have a different shape from a caddy with the same stated capacity from another supplier.
| Capacity | Typical Application | Reference Thickness | Packaging Options |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5L | Compact benchtop caddies | 0.018-0.025 mm | Roll or folded |
| 6L | Retail and starter-kit caddies | 0.018-0.025 mm | Roll or retail box |
| 8L | Food waste and selected FOGO caddies | 0.018-0.025 mm | Roll or retail pack |
| 10L | Larger benchtop food waste caddies | 0.018-0.028 mm | Roll or retail pack |
For an accurate fit, buyers should provide:
- Caddy width, depth, and height
- Rim dimensions
- Required bag overhang and tie-off space
- Preferred bags per roll
- A technical drawing, photograph, or physical sample
Final dimensions should be approved through fitting samples before mass production.
Product Performance
The film thickness and seal structure can be selected according to the required load, food waste type, storage period, and collection system.
Available performance options include:
- Puncture-resistant film for common food scraps
- Leak-resistant star-seal or flat-seal construction
- Controlled film thickness and bag dimensions
- Roll perforation developed for consistent separation
- Load and seal testing against the approved specification
Performance requirements should be confirmed during sample approval. A compostability certificate does not replace physical performance testing.
Kitchen Caddy Liners for FOGO Programs
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics. These programs collect accepted organic waste for commercial processing.
Certified compostable caddy liners may be suitable for selected FOGO programs. However, certification does not guarantee acceptance by every council or composting facility.
Before placing an order, buyers should confirm:
- Required compostability standard
- Approved certification mark
- Finished-product certificate scope
- Council or collection-program requirements
- Acceptance by the receiving composting facility
- Required caddy and roll dimensions
The liner itself does not determine which food scraps are accepted. Waste acceptance rules are set by the local program and processing facility.
The Australasian Bioplastics Association states that certification does not guarantee acceptance in every composting system. For example, current Western Australian FOGO guidance refers to certified compostable caddy liners and AS 4736, but buyers must still check the rules for their own council and processor.
Customization Options (OEM / ODM)
OEM means the liners are manufactured to the buyer’s approved specification. Available OEM and private-label options include:
- Film thickness from 0.015–0.030 mm, subject to specification review
- Custom width, length, and thickness
- Natural, green, or custom Pantone colors
- Paper-core, coreless, rolled, or folded formats
- Custom bags per roll
- Water-based inks, subject to the artwork and certification scope
- Printing in up to 8 colors, subject to artwork review
- Retail boxes, paper sleeves, outer bags, or bulk cartons
- EAN, UPC, barcode, and carton-label support
Certification marks may only be printed when the finished product, certificate scope, and licensing conditions permit their use.
Standards, Certifications, and Project Documents
Depending on the finished liner specification and target market, common references may include EN 13432, ASTM D6400, AS 4736, AS 5810, OK compost INDUSTRIAL, and OK compost HOME.
Available project documents may include:
- Raw-material certificate
- Finished-product certificate
- Laboratory test report
- Technical data sheet
- Safety data sheet
- Certificate of analysis
- Supplier declaration
- Third-party inspection report
These documents are not interchangeable. Buyers should check the certificate holder, product scope, tested thickness, printing coverage, validity date, and permitted certification marks.

FAQ
We manufacture 5L, 6L, 8L, and 10L kitchen caddy liners. Capacity alone does not confirm the correct fit. Final dimensions should be based on the caddy measurements, drawing, or an approved sample.
Certified configurations may be available under standards or programs such as EN 13432, ASTM D6400, AS 4736, AS 5810, OK compost INDUSTRIAL, and OK compost HOME. Availability depends on the finished liner specification and certificate scope.
They may be accepted when the finished product carries the certification required by the local program. Buyers must confirm acceptance with the council, collection contractor, and composting facility.
Compostable bags must meet defined requirements under a relevant compostability standard. “Biodegradable” alone does not identify a specific timeframe, environment, or certification requirement.
No. Kitchen caddy liners are designed for small food waste caddies, usually from 5L to 10L. Standard kitchen trash bags are generally larger and may use different materials and disposal routes.
The typical MOQ starts from 500 kg per size and specification. Final quantity requirements depend on the dimensions, thickness, printing, packaging, and material configuration.
