Eco-Friendly Cutlery & Straws
As single-use plastic cutlery bans expand across the EU, Canada, parts of the US, and the UAE, restaurants and food service operators need reliable alternatives that perform as well as plastic. We supply wooden, bamboo, CPLA, and paper cutlery and straws — compostable, branded, and designed for real-world food service use.
Cutlery Options
Wooden Cutlery
Birchwood forks, knives, spoons, and sporks. Smooth-sanded finish with no splinters. Individually wrapped or bulk packed. Naturally compostable and biodegradable. The most popular plastic-free option globally. FSC-certified wood available.
Bamboo Cutlery
Stronger and more durable than birchwood. Natural bamboo grain gives a premium, eco-friendly aesthetic. Ideal for brands positioning as sustainable or natural. Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing renewable resources.
CPLA Cutlery
Crystallized PLA (corn-starch-based bioplastic) that looks and feels like conventional plastic. Heat-resistant up to 85°C — suitable for hot food. Certified industrially compostable (EN 13432). Best for operators who want a plastic-like experience with compostable credentials.
Straw Options
Paper Straws
3-ply or 4-ply food-grade paper with water-based adhesive. Available in white, kraft, or custom colors and patterns (stripes, polka dots, solid colors). Standard sizes: 6mm × 197mm (regular) and 8mm × 197mm (smoothie). 4-ply straws maintain structure for 2–3 hours in cold drinks.
PLA Straws
Clear bioplastic straws that look identical to conventional plastic. Compostable in industrial facilities. Best for operators who want visual transparency (customers can see the drink through the straw). Not suitable for hot beverages.
Bamboo Straws
Natural hollow bamboo segments. Reusable or single-use. Premium aesthetic for cocktail bars, eco-resorts, and high-end restaurants.
Jumbo Bubble Tea Straws
12mm diameter pointed-tip straws for piercing sealing film. Available in paper (wrapped, custom printed) or PLA. Essential for boba shops.
