Zero Waste Goal: Choose lidded solutions to minimize production waste.
Water-based ink used for printing: No harsh chemicals.
FSC Certified: Consisting of a mix of recycled and virgin plant fibers that are sustainably sourced.
Minimal Footprint: 1mm thick material minimizes storage and transportation impact.
How2Recycle: Transparent on-package recycling instructions for consumers.

Always Innovating: For an even bigger sustainability boost, Eco-Trays can also be made with up to 40% Grass Paper!
