History
↓↓
Garbage bags were first developed in the 1950s as a hygienic and convenient way to collect and dispose of waste. Invented by Canadian inventor Harry Wasylyk and manufactured by Union Carbide, these bags became popular in households and industries, improving sanitation and waste management. Over time, garbage bags have evolved in size, material, and durability, including biodegradable and heavy-duty versions. Today, they are used worldwide for residential, commercial, and industrial waste disposal.
