Is your special day just around the corner? Whether you are planning a fancy wedding or a rustic one on a cozy lawn, a zero-waste wedding is absolutely what you should be going for. While it might be the season of forever for you, your wedding should not leave a lasting impact that contributes to microplastics in our ecosystem forever.
That said, when it comes to choosing wedding tableware, disposable wedding tableware options can be a great way to go all low-waste. And, unlike those flimsy single-use plastic plates or bowls, our range of compostable wedding plates is in for a greener, loving day.
Here's what to know before you choose compostable wedding plates and bowls for your wedding:
Why Choose Compostable Wedding Plates?
If you are in for a sustainable wedding (because that's what people are talking about), choosing eco-friendly tableware has to be one of your safest bets. And, our range of compostable wedding plates and bowls is a great option.
For starters, our eco wedding plates are plastic and tree-free. Made from sustainably sourced materials, like upcycled sugarcane bagasse, our disposable wedding plates are USDA-certified for being made out of bio-based (green) material. Moreover, they are also TUV-certified for being home and industrial compostable.
Unlike single-use plastic plates, which are made from non-renewable resources and take a long time to break down in our ecosystem, these compostable plates break down fast. Certified to break down fast into nutrient-rich compost, they are here for a fun time, not a long time.
Benefits of Compostable Plates: Beyond Sustainability
Besides being plant-based and compostable, our range of compostable wedding plates is pretty much a better version of disposable plastic plates. While plastic disposable plates get flimsy with all that weight, these plates are known not to buckle under pressure. They are non-soggy and anti-mushy.
Moreover, these eco-friendly disposable plates are heat-resistant as well. Whether you want to top them up with some spicy hot curry or totally glazed wings for appetizers, these plates are strong and sturdy. They are also non-toxic and do not release any kind of toxins or chemicals into your food.
Lastly, these plates are microwave and freezer-safe. They can be used in an oven, microwave, freezer, or refrigerator, without worrying about toxins or chemicals.
