Yes, but please test it for your application before buying tons of them. PLA is itself a somewhat porous fil so whether or not you even want PLA lined is a question. shelf life and what amount of air and moisture transmission your product can tolerate is all important. Test it please. PLA is heat seal-able but in the industry, they would call this a destructive bond, meaning that there is a breakdown of the structure of the film itself. Basically it falls between fair to poor, depending on the temperature, time and pressure applied for these Compostable PLA lined Tin Tie Bags. PLA as a material is a plant based starch compound that looks and feels like Poly, but it's porous and reacts somewhat easily to heat.
