From smoothie bowls to salads and baba ganoush, our 500ml clear containers are popular with restaurant meal delivery and catering businesses for food that goes places and for when it doesn’t—food court and quick-food-service environments.
Our clear takeout containers are made from the Ingeo™ brand of polylactic acid (PLA), a bioplastic sourced from regenerative resources like beets, sugarcane and cassava. Not petrochemicals. Lids are sold separately.

End of Life
Industrial Composting
Our PLA containers are certified compostable to the AS 4736, ASTM D6400 and EN 13432 standards for industrial composting, which requires the product to:
1) disintegrate after 12 weeks, and
2) completely biodegrade after six months. (This means that 90% or more of the material will have been converted to CO2. The remaining share is converted into water and biomass – i.e. valuable compost.)
