We all noticed it, being green is trendy and it is a great thing for the environment! You can now find Eco-friendly alternatives to pretty much anything and any products as long as you take the time to look into it.

What about disposable tableware? It has the image of being bad for the environment when it actually isn’t if you pick the right material. The material we’re going to talk about in this article is a great green alternative to plastic disposable dinnerware and is becoming more and more popular.

I am of course talking about Palm Leaf! Why is it so Eco-friendly? Here is how Palm leaf tableware is made: The sheaths of the palm tree, which in the course of their life cycle dry, fall and regenerate, are collected, cleaned and molded into tableware. It means that no trees are cut down! Palm leaf is a unique, renewable and biodegradable material and is also 100% compostable.

The next question is, why is it so popular? Because Palm leaf tableware are made of fallen sheaths, every plate or bowl is unique! The color and texture is very natural and even though they do look similar (of course, you want them to match) they are all a little bit different which adds a special touch to your tables. Eco-friendly, beautiful and original, palm leaf tableware is also very functional since it is microwaveable and grease resistant. You can therefore serve any type of food and they will be sturdy enough to be used in all situations, indoor and outdoor. What’s more? They also are oven safe up to 350 F / 45 min in a traditional oven. It keeps getting better!

Bring an upscale tropical feel to your events by using Palm Leaf tableware and you can be sure it will be a hit.
