• Biodegradable & Sustainable: Areca palm leaf plates are made from fallen leaves of the areca palm, so no trees are cut down for their production. The leaves are cleaned, steamed and pressed into shape without the use of chemicals or adhesives. The plates are 100% biodegradable, compostable, and an eco-friendly option, resulting in environmental sustainability.
• Easy to Compost & Reduce Waste: Full biodegradable, these plates break down naturally and can simply be composted back into the earth in your own garden and reduce your carbon footprint even more by minimizing the impact that you have on the world around you.

• Strong & Sturdy: Palm leaf plates are incredibly strong, making them suitable for both casual and formal events. The pressing process used during manufacturing ensures the plates are compact and robust, which makes them a practical choice for a wide variety of dishes.
• Water and Grease resistance: These plates are naturally water resistant and can withstand greasy, oily and watery foods without being soggy or falling apart, which is an advantage over some paper plates.
