Vegware Lightweight Compostable CPLA Knives White (Pack of 50)

Description

Take steps towards a more sustainable food service operation with this pack of 50 x white Vegware compostable knives. What Makes These Knives Earth-Friendly?Because they’re made from plant-based CPLA, the knives are commercially compostable within 12 weeks after use. By composting these knives, you’ll send less waste to landfill and instead turn your disposable cutlery into nutrient-rich compost that’s used to grow more plants.This CPLA material is also highly renewable, meaning the knives are far kinder to Earth’s natural resources than traditional oil-based plastic alternatives. This will help to minimise your impact on the planet, even if you can’t send them to industrial composting facilities. What Are The Other Benefits Of CPLA?CPLA has been crystallised for added strength, making these knives sturdy enough to cut through tough and crunchy foods without breaking. The CPLA material also makes the knives suitable for use at temperatures up to 85°C, meaning they’re great for use with both hot and cold dishes.Are These Knives Recyclable?CPLA can technically be recycled, but most facilities won’t accept these disposable knives as the material is difficult to process. Because of this, it’s better that you try to send these knives to industrial composting facilities where possible.
