Product description
Designed for generous servings, this 270mm x 160mm oval palm leaf plate is ideal for main courses, platters, or shared meals. The natural palm grain gives each plate a unique appearance, adding a rustic charm to any table setting. Strong enough to handle hot and saucy dishes, it's a premium eco-friendly option for food service.
Sourced from Areca Nut Plantations, Areca trees shed roughly 8 to 10 leaves per year. The fallen leaves are taken to the factory where they are washed under high pressure spring water. 80% of water used to clean the leaves is diverted back into production processes for reuse.
The shaping process involves the leaf pressed and heated to 180° C (also doubles as heat sterilisation).
The pressed leaves are then checked, sent for edging and UV sterilisation. The offcuts are used to make smaller bowls, so there is very little waste. Final scraps are used as compost to fertilise the same trees they fell from.
The tableware is then treated just prior to packaging using a Photohydroionization process. This non penetrating chemical free, ionising UV radiation is a very effective food grade sanitation method.
