FAQ of Bioleader's Eco-friendly Disposable Tableware

Is it possible to recycle them?

While your package design should be primarily for use single, to promote health oder, the package is strong enough for one or two times reuse with caution.

Do you offer the bowls with logo customization?

Certainly! We provide complete branding of our paper takeaway bowls, which includes brand logos and selection designs on the bowls. For details, please get in touch with us.

Materials: Kraft Paper & White Cardboard Paper

Our company’s biodegradable bowls are made of materials that allow biodegradation such as kraft paper and cardboard paper — small paper plates. Sturdy and durable kraft paper is opaque and gives the kraft paper a natural aesthetic that consumers in this era should gorge on — small paper plates. White cardboard paper helps to enhance this look while ensuring that the bowl remains strong. Even these materials are 100% bio-degradable, hence these disposable biodegradable bowls will decompose within a short time after disposal to reduce pollution.

What are creative uses for small paper plates outside of eating?

Small paper plates are great for kids’ crafts, paint palettes, sorting beads or buttons, seed starters for gardening, and organizing office supplies.

Can small paper plates be composted after non-food use?

If used with non-toxic materials like paint or glue, they may still be compostable — small paper plates. However, those with chemical residue or glitter should be discarded properly.
