ASTM D6400 Compostable Portion Pots That Reduce Micro-Plastic

Sustainable landfill friendly alternative for take-out food service operations

From sampling sauces to serving snacks and alcoholic drink shots, to jello shots and wine tasting, disposable portion pots are great for dipping or dining occasions. Portion cups are also ideal containers for testing water samples, dispensing medications, keeping paints, inks and powders separated and accessible.

Versatile and convenient, these small food portion containers are a staple at food establishments, amusement parks and other large gatherings for their ability to limit consumption, reduce waste and keep sides separated. Unfortunately petroleum based food containers are difficult to recycle and contribute to a major portion of municipal solid waste that are resulting in toxic micro-plastics. 

Vast amounts of plastics enter the environment every year and it is impacting wildlife, the climate, the water we drink and the food we consume. Plastic pollution is perhaps one of the most pressing and critical issues facing the planet and it is negatively impacting human health.

OXO-DEGRADABLE

Plastic pollution is the accumulation of plastic objects and particles in the Earth's environment that adversely affects humans, wildlife and their habitat. 

Plastic products include every day, disposable items such as plastic bottles, to-go food containers, razors, toothbrushes, pill bottles, food wrappings, bags and microbeads used in cosmetics within health and beauty.  The chemical structure of most plastics renders them resistant to many natural processes of degradation referred to as oxo-degradable.

Oxo-degradable plastic products do not biodegrade. Instead it slowly breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces and eventually into fine toxic microplastics resulting in particles less than five millimeters in size. These fragments will unfortunately remain in the environment indefinitely and will eventually make its way into the food chain.

Reduce Landfill Pollution & Eliminate Plastics with Compostable Plant-Based PLA Portion Pots That Meet ASTM D6400 Standard

There is a new technology available for foodservice and outdoor catering establishments and it’s called Polyactic Acid (PLA). PLA is a plastic substrate made from fermented plant starch (usually corn) and it is fast becoming a popular alternative to traditional petroleum based plastic resins such as polyethylene.

Non-toxic and non-polluting, these BPA plastic-free portion pots are certified to the ASTM D6400 standard to breakdown into healthy soil within 12 weeks. These compostable plant-based PLA based souffle cups conserve oil resources and support cleaner production methods while protecting the health of our planet and diverting waste from landfill.
