Although disposable plastic cutlery provides convenience and cost efficiency, it carries significant health and environmental risks. Certain plastics release carcinogens at high temperatures, posing long-term health hazards. More critically, their non-biodegradable nature contributes to severe "white pollution," persisting for centuries and exerting immense pressure on ecosystems. To address these concerns, cutlery made from sugarcane bagasse has been developed.
Regulatory frameworks like the EU’s Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUP) and China’s escalating plastic restrictions are accelerating demand for biodegradable alternatives. Molded fiber cutlery—utilizing renewable materials such as sugarcane bagasse and bamboo pulp—aligns perfectly with market needs through its biodegradability and sustainable sourcing. Industry reports indicate the global biodegradable tableware market is expanding at a CAGR exceeding 15%, with pulp-molded products capturing substantial market share.
Adopting advanced molded fiber wet pressing technology, plant fibers are molded into shape, and then hot pressed to form tableware such as knives, forks, spoons, etc. While this method is more complex and costly than traditional injection molding, its core advantage lies in 100% biodegradable plant-based materials, substantially reducing environmental impact at the source.
