• 100% Compostable • Marine Biodegradable • Chemical Free • 10 packs X 100 pieces Birchware started in 2009 as a unique product offering in the compostable cutlery market. As local, state and national governments adopt new regulations concerning single use disposables. The option of using a compostable cutlery made of only natural wood fiber was the ideal solution. Made from only 100% natural birch wood and containing no glues or glazes. Each Birchware utensil is stamped out and steam formed to its final shape. No different then a toothpick, tongue depressor and Popsicle stick currently being used throughout the Medical and Hospitality industry. Beyond compostable, Birchware cutlery is also Marine Biodegradable. Unlike Conventional or even Compostable Plastics that will simply break into pieces of micro plastic once washed into our waterways. Birchware will completely biodegrade in any lake, river or ocean.
