Co-op to remove plastic ‘bags for life’ as they become the new single-use carrier bag


The Co-op is to remove plastic “bags for life” from sale in all of its 2,600 stores, warning that the low-cost, reusable bag has become the new single-use carrier.

The bags will be phased out from April 30 with all remaining stock expected to be sold by the end of this summer.

The retailer is replacing single-use bags with 10p compostable carriers to all stores to ensure that customers are able to buy a low-cost, low-impact alternative bag with a sustainable second use.


The fee for single-use plastic shopping bags in England will double to 10p in May.

The Co-op has welcomed the increase, but is now calling for a policy to require major retailers to report on all reusable bags, as well as single-use bags, to provide greater transparency to track the true impact of carrier bag levy.

According to the manufacturer, Bags for Life utilize more plastic in production than standard single-use bags. The Co-new op's effort will prevent the sale of 29.5 million bags for life, weighing nearly 870 tonnes of plastic, each year.
