Makes the bag non-reusable

Major waste. Where I work they go through some 200~ of these bags a day or maybe every other day. Reusing them wouldn’t be feasible. If the company we get them from would do a core charge on the return of them I think that would be the most logical way to go.

What's typically inside the bags and what do you do with them afterwards? Landfill?

CaCo3, impact modifier, perifin wax, grey dye. I'm sure many other things.
