Product Information

Full details

For eco-conscious individuals and event organizers seeking a sustainable alternative to plastic tableware, these 23cm Caterpack Enviro Range plates offer superior rigidity and compostability. The primary benefit is their strong, non-soggy performance even with hot foods and liquids, along with a 100% biodegradable composition. A minor consideration is their disposable nature, which, despite being compostable, still requires proper disposal. These plates are made from high-density sugar cane pulp, ensuring they are robust, microwave and freezer safe, and an excellent choice for parties, BBQs, and everyday home use, providing an easy cleanup solution without environmental compromise.

Troubleshooting

Plate feels less rigid than expected

Ensure the plate has not been exposed to excessive moisture prior to use. Store in a dry environment.

Plate becomes soggy with very hot liquids

While designed to be resistant, extremely prolonged exposure to intensely hot liquids might eventually affect rigidity. Use within a reasonable timeframe for best results.
