Raw
Materials
Our products are made from renewable plant materials that can be grown again and again. Not made from oil like traditional plastics. All our Bagasse and PLA/CPLA products are compostable, which means they can be returned to the soil to help plants grow.
​
Food Service compostable products are ASTM compliant and BPI certified compostable in commercial facilities only, please note these may not exist in your area. But even in if products end up in landfill PLA bioplastic gives off up to 75% lower greenhouse gas emissions than PET*

Paper
Paper: Our Earthpouch, Earth Film and Earth Bags are made from a specially designed paper with a plastic-free heat-sealable coating that enables it to have a grease, water and moisture barrier.
This paper is not currently oven proof.

PLA
PLA: Poly Lactic Acid or sometimes known as Bioplastic is made from starchy plants like corn. PLA looks similar to petroleum-based plastics but are made from plants and are 100% compostable. PLA products such as our Cold Cups, Straws, Clear Grab and Go Containers and World View Take Out Container Lid are transparent and heat sensitive and should be used for cold food only.

CPLA and PLA are not suitable for the freezer

Bagasse
Bagasse: Bagasse is the waste fiber that is left after sugarcane has been pressed for its juice, it’s a byproduct that would otherwise be discarded or burned. It’s eco-friendly because it’s a renewable, fast growing resource and it can completely compost in a commercial composting facility. Bagasse products can also be recycled with other paper products as long as they have not absorbed any grease from food.
Bagasse products are oven, microwave and freezer safe

CPLA
CPLA: CPLA is a combination of PLA, chalk and other biodegradable additives and can withstand
temperatures of up to 95°C. Our Cutlery, Coffee Cup and Hot Food Container lids are made from
CPLA. Our Coffee Cups and Hot Food Containers are lined with CPLA to prevent them from absorbing
liquids.
CPLA and PLA are not suitable for the freezer
