Why Choose Paper-Based Tableware?
As environmental concerns grow, many Australians are turning towards compostable and recyclable alternatives to plastic and foam products. Here's why:
- Biodegradable Materials: Our paper plates and cups are made from responsibly sourced materials, designed to decompose in a matter of weeks under the right conditions.
- Safe and Non-toxic: Paper items don't leach harmful chemicals into food or drink – unlike many petroleum-based plastics.
- Compliant with Local Regulations: With increasing bans on single-use plastic in states like NSW and VIC, switching to paper-based alternatives ensures compliance and future-proofs your operations.
In fact, more than 3.5 million tonnes of plastic are consumed in Australia each year, yet only 13% is recycled. Choosing paper reduces your environmental footprint and supports the national waste reduction targets set by the Australian Government.
Sustainable Benefits of Choosing Disposable Tableware
You might be wondering: isn't disposable a dirty word in sustainability circles? Not when it's made right. Here's how our paper cups and plates outperform traditional disposables:
-
1. Compostability
Unlike plastic, which can linger for hundreds of years, our paper products break down naturally in compost facilities or your backyard compost bin. They're often certified compostable under international standards like AS 4736 (for industrial composting) or AS 5810 (for home composting).
-
2. Sourcing from Renewable Resources
Our paper products are derived from sustainably harvested trees, often FSC®-certified. That means forests are managed in a way that preserves biodiversity and protects the rights of workers and communities.
-
3. Lower Carbon Footprint
A lifecycle analysis by the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) shows that paper disposables have a lower GHG footprint when produced and disposed of responsibly.

When to Use Disposable Cups, Plates & Serviettes
While reusable tableware is always the gold standard at home, there are many occasions where disposable options are more practical – especially when made from eco-friendly materials:
- Outdoor Events: Avoid breakages and mess while staying sustainable.
- School Lunches: Great for teachers or parents packing multiple meals or snacks.
- Catering and Cafés: Streamline service while offering a green alternative to plastic.
- Corporate Functions: Impress clients with your commitment to sustainability.
Remember: using single-use doesn’t have to mean wasteful – it's all about the material and end-of-life plan.
