About Our Areca Plates
We are proud to bring you our range of natural, sustainable plates and bowls, made from the fallen leaves of the areca palm tree.
These 100% biodegradable plates and bowls are durable, lightweight and require minimal processing from tree to table.
- the fallen palm leaf is gathered (it is not cut – only the fallen leaves are suitable)
- it is then washed in spring water
- then heat-pressed into shape (this also sterilises the leaf) – no chemicals, waxes, dyes or additives are used
Palm Leaf Plates are a stylish and unique alternative to other disposable tableware on the market.
- Stronger and more natural than corn or potato starch, sugar cane, paper & bamboo plates
- They won’t harm our environment and can be burnt, taken to a landfill or composted
- Microwave-, oven- and refrigerator-safe. Don’t try this with other disposable plates!
This cottage industry provides a source of income for many families in South Asia, making Palm Leaf Plates a responsible decision for your family, their families, and our environment.
What better way of utilizing nature’s gift of fallen leaves! This is truly nature’s tableware
