Plant Fiber Plate – The optimal solution is to direct these materials to an industrial composting facility where things like controlled temperature and the presence of microorganisms accelerate decomposition. Breakdown typically occurs in a few months or less under these conditions. Unfortunately finding such a facility in your locale may prove to be difficult and the alternative, placing these materials into your home compost, oftentimes will take much longer to yield the desired result.
Thin Plastic Sleeve – this material is typically not recyclable through city and residential recycling programs. For places that except plastic bags, you can ask if this is an acceptable item for this type of waste stream. If not, Terracycle has a program in place for these materials:

Wow, I have not shopped for products that help save the earth. This website is a emotional experience. Earth caring companies come together to help save the earth and products are distributed here in this one place. I bought different disposable dinnerware products for an upcoming camping trip.. These are not just any products… the quality is exceptional. Went beyond my expectations. Good old fashioned quality work in a modern sustainable product.

This is the second time around I ordered these. Took first set in a camping trips and everyone loved them so much that I left them behind with more frequent campers. I love having some around the house when I’m not in the mood to do dishes. Like the cutlery, it feel nice knowing that I’m not hurting the environment when I throw them away. Absolutely love this company, it’s like a cozy Trader Joe’s online.
