EATware trays represent a new concept in pulp container materials and manufacturing.
EATware trays are 100 percent all natural, made with annually renewable fibres such as bamboo and sugar cane pulp, starch and water, and no chemical additives.

Eatware products are biodegradable and compostable to European EN13432 standards, are FDA approved for food contact (US FDA 21 CFR 176.170, US FDA 21 CFR 178.3800) and have Quality Environmental and Food Saftey Management System Compliance (ISO 9001:200, ISO 14001:2004 and HACCP).
EATware is produced using a unique patented mechanical pulping system that extracts cellulose fibres from agricultural residues or plants with short life cycle, like sugar cane and bamboo, through mechanical action instead of chemical means. Absolutely chlorine and sulphur free, this system not only causes minimal environmental hazard but also minimizes costs by eliminating pollution charges and the need for expensive chemicals.
Proprietary EATplus Additive EATplus is the world's first 100% organic additive used in the paper pulp food container industry. Made of starch and other all-natural materials, it enhances the mechanical properties of fibres which then become resistant to oil and water, even at high temperature, yet remain highly biodegradable. No existing synthetic additive has these features. EATplus also doesn't require expensive ingredients, helping to keep production costs low and giving our products a distinct competitive edge.
Eatware trays are also available with a bioplastic laminate if required. This improves the moisture barrier of the trays for products that exude moisture such as raw meats. Eatware trays are suitable for packaging fresh fruits, vegetables, cheese, dried foods, fish, chicken and meat. In fact they are the sustainable alternative to polystyrene foam and plastic trays. Wrapping options include, flow wrap, stretch wrap and heat sealing lidding film directly to the container.
