Flexible bags, or covers or t-sacks comprising recycled resin alone or in combination with virgin resin

Abstract

A bag or cover comprising a flexible film that is comprised of polyolefin resins. The bag is comprised of PCR or PIR resins wholly or in combination with virgin resins, to maintain adequate mechanical properties for the protection of large or bulky objects during storage or transportation. The bag further comprises an organic additive to aid in the biodegradation of the bag or cover. A T-Sack bag is also taught that is comprised of flexible film comprised of polyolefin resins that are comprised of either PCR or PIR resins wholly or in combination with virgin resins to maintain adequate mechanical properties of the T-Sack. The bag further comprises an organic additive to aid in biodegradation of the bag.
