When produce is harvested it releases a gas called ethylene. This gas gets trapped in the plastic bags, as they don't allow air circulation. When the produce can no longer breathe, due to the gas, it begins to sweat. This starts the spoiling process.

Eco Saint bags allow your produce to breathe, and absorb any excess moisture that can be detrimental to freshness. On the flip-side, some produce needs this moisture, but not the gas. 
 This will be all of your leafy greens, like spinach, and herbs. By dampening the bag,  gases are still released while water vapor is held in. The moisture keeps the greens crisper and fresher longer.

Made of cotton, the bags will shrink if washed in hot water or popped in the drier.
To prevent shrinking it is best to cold wash, by hand or in the machine and leave to air dry. This doesn't need to be done with every produce rotation, but it is important to keep any remnants or strong odours from produce (eg onions & herbs) away from a new selection. This will keep your bags from moulding due to undisposed food.
