Crafted by EcoAid, this tray is part of the esteemed Sugarcane Series, known for its commitment to sustainability and quality.

Sustainable Design

• Material: Made entirely from sugarcane fiber (bagasse), this tray is 100% biodegradable and compostable, typically breaking down within 30 to 90 days in composting environments. This reduces plastic waste and CO₂ emissions, offering a greener alternative to conventional disposables.
• Coating: For specific applications, a bioplastic coating may be included, enhancing its versatility, particularly in holding alcohol-based solutions.

Certifications and Compliance

• Standards: The tray meets rigorous standards, including ISO 9001:2015 certification and compliance with ASTM D6868 and EN13432 for compostability.
• Safety: It is TGA listed and food-grade certified, free from harmful substances like BPA, PFAS, plasticizers, and chlorine.

Performance Features

• Durability: Structurally strong, waterproof, and puncture-resistant, the tray can hold liquids for extended periods, making it suitable for both hot and cold items. It withstands temperatures up to 120°C/248°F, and is safe for use in microwaves and freezers.
• Design: The clean-edge finish ensures comfort and safety, while its lightweight nature aids in reducing waste management costs.

Intended Use

• Medical Application: Ideal for single-use scenarios to minimize cross-infection risks. It serves effectively in the safe transfer of sharps and can be sterilized for inclusion in procedure packs.
• Food Service: Equally adept at serving hot or cold foods, providing a versatile option across different settings.

Disposal and Customization

• Disposal: Best composted but will biodegrade in landfills if necessary. It can also be incinerated for renewable energy with lower emissions.
• Branding: Offers custom branding options with logo embossing and food-safe, compostable ink printing. Compatibility with heat-sealing may be confirmed for specific needs.
