Yes. High-quality eco trays are heat-resistant up to 120°C and freezer-safe. They’re ideal for packing hot dishes like rice and curries or cold items like salads, desserts, and refrigerated meals.

This approach further helps eliminate waste from dumping/filling grounds and further helps the environment while everything decomposes into compost materials , compostable packaging Mexico.

The true regulatory momentum in Mexico lies at the state and municipal level. Over the past few years, multiple states and major cities—including Mexico City and the State of Mexico—have enacted laws that: Ban or restrict single-use plastic bags, cutlery, straws, and foam containers Require packaging to be reusable, recyclable, or demonstrably biodegradable Impose fines, operational suspensions, or license revocations for non-compliance Some jurisdictions go further, demanding technical validation of biodegradability or compostability claims. This makes vague “eco-friendly” labeling increasingly risky.

At the national level, Mexico has chosen a coordination-first approach rather than immediate prohibition. In 2019, the government, together with major industry stakeholders, launched the National Agreement for the New Plastics Economy. While not legally binding, this agreement establishes clear strategic targets for 2030: All plastic packaging to be reusable, recyclable, or compostable PET collection rates to reach 80% Other plastics to achieve 45% recovery An average of 30% recycled content across plastic packaging From a policy-design perspective, this agreement functions as a soft-law framework. It signals direction, aligns industry expectations, and prepares the ground for future regulation—without triggering immediate economic disruption , compostable packaging Mexico.
