  • Chemical Profile: 100% Petrochemical Plastic-Free, Wax-Free, Chlorine-Free, and Added PFAS-Free.
  • Certifications: Fully certified 100% commercially compostable to EN13432 standards.
Disposal Guide

Green (Best): Soiled with fry oil, gravies, or sauces? Place directly into your commercial food waste bin for industrial composting within 6–12 weeks.

Amber (Good): If completely clean, dry, and unsoiled by food residue, sort into standard paper/cardboard recycling streams.

Red (Okay): If routed to general waste, the natural paperboard fibers decompose safely over time in landfills without releasing microplastics.
