Are these bowls totally biodegradable?

Yes, unlike plastic, our compostable bowls are made of soluble material (biodegradable in this case includes kraft paper & white cardboard), which are not harmful and will degrade safely after they have been thrown away.

What are the sizes of these bowls?

The compostable bowls with lids can be found in different sizes bulging from 500ml to 1500ml (8oz to 48oz) to suit varying food portions.

How Industrial Composting Works

Collection & Sorting: Organic waste and compostable materials are collected and sorted to remove contaminants. Shredding & Mixing: Materials are shredded to increase surface area, ensuring faster breakdown. Composting Phase: The mixture is placed in windrows, aerated piles, or in-vessel systems where temperature, moisture, and oxygen are regulated. Maturation: After several weeks or months, the compost stabilizes and becomes a nutrient-rich soil conditioner.

Why Cornstarch Tableware is a Game-Changer

A 2020 study published in Environmental Science & Technology demonstrated that cornstarch-based materials release 80% fewer greenhouse gases during decomposition compared to traditional plastics , Environmental Sustainability. Furthermore, these materials are less likely to disrupt marine life due to their rapid biodegradability — Environmental Sustainability.
