A Full Line of Catering Trays, Bowls, and Lids – All Made of Compostable, Biodegradable Ingeo® Packaging

Excellent Packaging & Supply's Latest BioMass Packaging Breakthrough with a full line of Catering Trays, Bowls, and Lids for the Disposable Foodservice Packaging Industry

A RECENT CONSUMER STUDY found that Americans rank sustainability issues as No. 1. That’s right – in that special survey, they rank ‘going green’ above human rights, above welfare issues, and above animal rights when shopping for food products.

So make no mistake about it: Sustainability is the most important consideration restaurant patrons and supermarket shoppers make when choosing where they eat and from whom they buy their groceries.
The way those foods are packaged and presented are also vital components of these buying decisions.

Biodegradable, Compostable, and Disposable Foodservice Packaging

That’s why the folks at Excellent Packaging & Supply (EPS) have developed a full line of completely biodegradable, compostable, and disposable foodservice packaging. You might know EPS from their innovative BioMass Packaging® line of completely plant-based food packaging and SpudWare® utensils, as well as their commitment to developing carbon-neutral products.

Almost everything that EPS offers is made from agricultural sources like sugar cane, reed, bamboo, palm, eucalyptus, potato, and Nebraska-grown feed corn. This corn forms a dominant biopolymer, Ingeo®, that EPS has used to develop a full line of trays, bowls, and lids aimed at the catering and foodservice industry.

LET’S FACE IT – caterers demand products that are more durable than those used in the average restaurant or home kitchen. Hot foods need to stay hot until they’re served to discerning customers and guests in buffet lines. Salads must remain crisp, and pasta dishes and cold cut platters must be presentable until they get to their ultimate destination – wherever that party, fair, festival, or wedding might be.

That’s why caterers are the toughest customers in the foodservice business. They appreciate the sustainability concerns shared by the American public. But when it comes down to it, they want to know that their trays, bowls, and lids hold up each and every time.

EPS knew that its line of catering trays and bowls had to surpass the durability standards of old-line plastics and metal catering containers. Plus, they had to be competitively priced.

“We’ve been advocating for sustainable alternatives to the petroleum-based trays and bowls used in the catering world,” the chairman of Excellent Packaging & Supply, Steve Levine, said. “Our trays and bowls look exactly like what they are replacing and perform even better. Let the guilt-free partying begin!”

EPS boasts more than 400 bio-based foodservice packaging products that meet all the needs of major dining and catering operations. Better still is that EPS provides the only national distribution program of sustainable foodservice disposables in the country with prepaid delivery. It’s all handled through the BioMass Packaging® program.

How many other foodservice packaging companies can say they’re focused on achieving a fully compostable waste stream within five years? EPS innovative line of products just got one step closer to this impressive goal with its new catering trays, bowls, and lids made completely of Ingeo®.
