For what type of event is disposable dishes the right solution?

Disposable dishes is a product that can be used for many events. It is useful when the number of cutlery is very important. Indeed, it eliminates the waste of time of dishes. In addition, reusable dishes being heavy, it requires significant effort for transport. 

Traditional reusable dishes has a major disadvantage which is its fragility. Indeed, glass glasses, champagne flutes, ceramic plates, break at the slightest fall. 

In addition, at the end of your event, no need to count your cutlery, because they are intended to be recycled. It is indeed one less hassle.

Likewise for fabric towels. At the end of an event, dirty paper towels are not a problem. No need to break your head to clean them like conventional fabric towels, as paper towels are intended for single use. 

Perfect events to use disposable dishes are birthdays, picnics or even weddings. 

There are many kinds of disposable dishes. Indeed, some would surprise you. The availability range in terms of materials is very wide. It goes from paper to bamboo. 

Plastic disposable dishes being no longer allowed in France since January 2020, many alternatives have been invented in order to substitute it. 

Disposable plates

Let's start with disposable plates. The most widespread alternative to date is the cardboard plate. It is the most economical alternative to date. Recyclable and useful, it will delight your expectations. However, the latter being very effective, it can turn out that it lacks glamor. The most suitable material would be the palm leaf. Indeed, the palm leaf plates are ideal if you are looking for eco-responsible, disposable and chic dishes. They will add a natural touch to your reception.
Another alternative would be bamboo. Adding a natural touch like the palm leaf, it adds a design touch which is unfortunately not always present.
The wooden plate is the ideal model between the cardboard plate and the bamboo plate. More economical than bamboo, this produces a better image than the cardboard plate with PE layer. 

Other materials are also available such as sugar cane bagasse or plastic cardboard. 

Disposable cups

The glasses are also a headache, no longer bother with the cardboard cups. These are customizable. They will therefore allow you to fulfill the conditions set. Disposable cups are also available in different materials. The classic cardboard goblet with its PE layer, sugar cane bagasse, plastic -free card or kraft cardboard. These are just as useful as glass glasses. 

Disposable cutlery

Disposable cutlery has also been in vogue in recent years. The most widespread are those in wood. They are practical and less dangerous than silver or stainless steel cutlery: disposable fork, disposable knife, disposable spoon...

However, these are available in various materials. These materials give them different properties. Bamboo, for example, can make more rigid disposable dishes. Bamboo wood cutlers are more resistant and their efficiency does not differ compared to traditional reusable dishes. 

Disposable dishes for take -out 

For professionals looking for disposable dishes for take -out restoration, single -use trays and bowls are the solution. Indeed, many types of disposable food containers exist to date. Take for example the disposable kraft bowls and disposable salad salad. These are most often available in Kraft cardboard. The Kraft cardboard offers an aesthetic appearance by its color and its smoothing. However, if that's not what you are looking for, but rather a natural appearance, look at materials similar to those used for disposable plates, such as palm leaf, sugar cane bagasse or bamboo.
