Is disposable wooden cutlery more eco friendly than plastic?

Is disposable wooden cutlery more eco friendly than plastic? The answer is yes, disposable wooden cutlery is more eco friendly than plastic.

Restaurants and food service companies all over the world are using plastic tableware. Plastic tableware is often used as a low-cost and convenient choice for commercial or personal use. These tableware are light in weight and easy to transport, but they are harmful to our environment.

We all know that plastic is a popular and functional product in the world today, but it has no place in nature. These materials contain harmful ingredients, such as bisphenol A or BPA, which can penetrate into food, soil and groundwater. It is an important cause of environmental pollution, blockage of rivers and oceans, and suffocation of birds and fish.

According to data from the World Economic Forum, approximately 40 billion plastic utensils are used and discarded every year - this is only in the United States. Since plastic utensils are very small and are almost always contaminated by food waste, they cannot be recycled and will eventually enter landfills or the ocean, destroying the life of animals and plants in the water and on land.

But wooden cutlery is different. The biggest advantage of using disposable wooden tableware is that it is 100% compostable. You can use disposable wooden tableware as a compostable resource and protect the environment.

Disposable wooden tableware such as spoons, forks, knives and chopsticks are mostly made of birch wood. The probability or chance of these disposable wooden items being composted is very high.
