Seattle, WA, Aug 20, 2019 /prREACH/ -- As the global drive to restrict single use plastic gets stronger, the use of a silicone reusable food bag is quickly emerging as an environmentally sustainable alternative. Urban Noon, a family business dedicated to creating eco-friendly culinary products, recently introduced its new silicone food storage bags. These reusable bags are manufactured from 100% food grade silicone, and the brand's core mission is to help reduce single use plastic in the environment.

The greatest concern for the use of plastic bags stems from the fact that they don't biodegrade, says the brand. Made of polythene, these bags cause pollution during their lifetime, from manufacturing to disposal. Its production consumes up to eight percent of the earth's oil resource.
Surprisingly, on an average, experts say that each plastic bag is used for no more than 12 minutes. However, it takes more than five hundred years for a plastic bag to degrade in a landfill, studies show, and even after 500 years, they still don't break down completely. Instead, they photo-degrade, turning into micro plastics that absorb toxins and continue to pollute the environment.
According to the latest statistics, over 100,000 marine creatures lose their lives every year because of plastic entanglement and ingestion. Approximately 1 million sea birds also die from plastic. A plastic bag is capable of killing numerous animals simply because they take almost an eternity to disintegrate, says experts.
"Regardless of how you dispose of plastic bags, they end up blowing onto the street, clogging waterways, and infiltrating other natural environments. Not only is this an eyesore, but it also costs money to clean up," says Ian Secan, spokesperson for Urban Noon. "By using a reusable bag, you are not only reducing the amount of non-renewable resources necessary to produce plastic bags, but you're also reducing the amount of money your community spends on clean up costs each year."
The reusable silicone food storage bag from Urban Noon is leak proof, heat and cold resistant, and comes with a strengthened and expandable base that keeps it upright. Most importantly, individuals can use the same reusable bag for freezing, storing, and heating different food items. The product also features a hermetic airtight seal that preserves the freshness and extends the life of stored food. Each pack of the product contains three medium and one large silicone bags.
