We want to send your goods as safely as possible so they arrive to you in the same condition as they left us. We also want to leave you with as little plastic and plastic lined containers as possible. The aim is zero plastic, the reality for food safety is generally PLA, which although plant-based will need to be commercially composted.

Vegware

Vegware has been supplying plant based compostable catering disposables for almost 20 years. Compared to the plastic and styrofoam alternatives of old, their PLA lined container are a game changer. They care about what happens to their products after service too.

Vegware have systems to collect waste and commercially compost their disposables.

These products are made from recycled or reclaimed materials, so even if you don’t have access to a compost bin, it all helps.
