As people are turning health conscious watching out the food that they eat, considerable interest and importance is also been given to the cutlery and tableware that holds and serves the food. The usage of plastic cutlery has reached epic proportions causing a lot of damage to the planet. This has led to an array of environmental-unfriendly situations like choking of the drainage systems , increased litter piles and non-decomposed plastic finding its way into the ocean and destroying life on land and water.
Thankfully, biodegradable cutlery is emerging out as the best alternative to the plastic menace and several products are being developed from natural fibers and biomass materials. The usage of bagasse, coconut coir, areca has led to the production of eco-friendly tableware and cutlery to curb the plastic menace.
