Can Paper Catch Fire in an Air Fryer or Oven?
Paper does not ignite at a temperature of 220 °C. However, it is important that the paper does not make direct contact with the heating element – in ovens, this is often located at the top or bottom, and in air fryers in the upper unit. Additionally, ensure that paper cannot be drawn in by air currents, for example when opening the oven door or when a loose sheet is placed in an empty air fryer.
My bio bags tear easily. Why is that?
Biodegradable bags are just as strong as regular plastic bags during normal use. However, when they become too old, they lose their elasticity and tear more easily. This is similar to paper. Therefore, store bio bags in a cool, dry, and dark place to maintain their quality.
My aluminum foil tears or doesn’t unroll properly. What can I do?
When using aluminum foil, it’s important to unroll the foil evenly across its entire width. Once the foil tears, it becomes difficult to unroll it neatly. Try to be patient and avoid using sharp objects – this often makes the situation worse. Keep the foil in its box while unrolling, as this protects the roll and prevents tearing at the edges.

Can Eyeglass Cleaning Wipes Cause Scratches or Damage the Lens Coating?
When using the lens cleaning wipes, ensure the wipe is moist. Make sure there is no dust on your glasses beforehand, as this can cause scratches during cleaning. To ensure the wipes are suitable for your glasses, please consult your optician. Do not dry wipe your glasses with a dry lens cleaning wipe.

Help! My bio-waste bag is already falling apart. What now?
That is, of course, not the intention, and it’s unfortunate that this happens! Bio-waste bags are made from biodegradable material and have a limited shelf life of about one year. If the bag has been in the store for a long time, the decomposition process may have already started.
What can you do?
Contact the store where you purchased the bag. They can check how long the product has been in stock and possibly assist you further.Tip: Store bio-bags in a dry, cool place and use them within the shelf life. This will prevent them from falling apart prematurely.
