Rice Wheat Fiber Plate
I. Introduction
z
Throughout the advancement of generations and
civilizations, people have always tried to make
dining more meaningful. This proves that the
dining experience is truly an immersive and
important aspect of our daily lives.
Single-use plastics have far-reaching environmental
impacts that go beyond waste disposal. From the
procurement of raw materials to manufacturing,
transit, and use, and all the way to disposal, a
particular type of packaging can have a substantial
environmental impact.
I. Introduction
z
With the rise of the food business, the demand for
packaging materials is increasing.
Paper plates are now available in small and big
sizes, as well as varied shapes and plate counts,
from well-known different brands.
The disposables used to serve food(plates) are the
focus of this issue. Although disposables play a role
in cooking, some kitchenware is not included.
Biodegradable packaging gives a potential for
expansion as more people become interested in green
living. We were driven by the chance to provide
convenience and improve public hygiene when it
comes to dishware product focuses into the plates.
