Soft plastic packaging includes flexible plastics that you can easily scrunch into a ball, such as:

  • Plastic bags
  • Biscuits and other snack wrappers
  • Chip packets and other silver lined snack wrappers
  • Fresh and frozen food and veggie wrappers/bags
  • Pasta bags, rice bags (both plastic and the woven type), bread bags (without the tie), and cereal liners
  • Cling wrap, bubble wrap, and snap lock/zip lock bags
  • Document sleeves, mail satchels and carrier bags
  • Plastic pet food and clean potting mix bags

Under the scheme, households can put their soft plastics into special orange bags to put into kerbside recycling bins to be made into new Australian products.
