Are disposable plastic plates really environmentally friendly?

Nowadays, people hold weddings, gatherings, and parties, and disposable plastic plates are used more and more, which is indeed very convenient. But many people will ask, are these plates really environmentally friendly?

According to data from the United Nations Environment Program, the world produces about 300 million tons of plastic each year, more than half of which are disposable plastic plates. Unfortunately, less than 10% of these plastics can be recycled, and the rest are often buried in landfills or flow into the ocean, which puts a lot of pressure on the environment. Ordinary plastic plates take hundreds of years to decompose, and the environmental burden is very heavy.

But this does not mean that disposable plastic plates are hopeless. The key is how we choose and how we use them.

We at Bestluck specialize in customizing various disposable tableware, and the main materials are PP (polypropylene), PS (polystyrene) and paper.

These materials are all recyclable, and they can help you customize the most suitable style and quantity of disposable plastic plates according to different themes and needs.

For example:
Charger Plates: Enhance the style of the table, thick and textured
Dinner Plates: Strong and durable, suitable for all kinds of main dishes
Dessert Plates: Delicate and flexible, perfect for desserts
Appetizer Plates: Small and practical, convenient for various snacks

This material can be decomposed in an industrial composting environment in about 180 days, much faster and safer than traditional disposable plastic plates.

For example, a party of 30 people can generate about 2.5 kilograms of plastic waste less if disposable plastic plates made of our environmentally friendly materials are used.

In 2024, Bestluck helped customers customize more than 150,000 environmentally friendly tableware, replacing a total of 12 tons of traditional plastic.

We believe that disposable tableware should not only be convenient, but also responsible.

If you choose the right product, disposable plastic plates can also be environmentally friendly and beautiful, making your party not only happy, but also more environmentally friendly.

So, next time you need tableware for a party, don’t forget Bestluck. We can help you get a complete set of tableware, from decorative base plates to dessert plates, which can be customized for you, making it easy and environmentally friendly.
