What could be more romantic than a heart-shaped palm leaf plate? Spread the love this Valentine’s Day with our new eco palm-leaf plates.

Our natural palm tree tableware is made from Areca nut palm leaves in the forests of Kerala, Southern India. Fallen leaves are collected, soaked in spring water, heat pressed into shape, and then dried. With absolutely no additives, coatings or chemicals, they are 100% eco-friendly and super sustainable.

Yes, we like being the first. This time, we’ve launched the market’s first compostable sugar stick. What’s the fuss about? Well this is the first zero waste sugar stick.

Most sugar sticks use paper with an oil-based PE plastic lining so that the package can be heat sealed. Vegware’s sugar sticks replace the PE lining with a plant-based heat-sealable coating. That means that after use, Vegware’s sugar sticks can be recycled either with dry paper, or composted with food waste. The wrap is from FSC certified sources and is suitable for direct food contact. Read our press release here. Get in touch if you’d like a sample!

What’s red and festive and green all over? Our eco Christmas cups! Bring a bit of festive cheer to your cafe, Christmas market or restaurant! Our seasonal design splashes red poinsettia and green holly and mistletoe across one of our award-winning eco insulated cups. We have extended the preorder period as we had a rush just after our last deadline…that’s the thing with deadlines isn’t it?! Anyway, if you’d like some, order online or give us a call on 0845 643 0406 or email orders@vegware.co.uk Merry CUPmas!

Yes! Breaking news! Now there’s an eco bag for hot food! Our new white glassine bags have a clear window, and are ideal for ogling food in hot food cabinets. They’re great for hot rolls, paninis or even hot pasties – if they survive the current budget… They come in two sizes – smaller or larger –  if you would like us to pop some samples in with your next order, just say the word.

Stop press! Now we can offer runs of just 1,000 custom-printed cups, so now it is ridiculously easy to splash your story across one of our Climate Week award-winning compostable double-wall cups. We’re kicking off this service with 10% off for all of August. Have a peek at our custom cup gallery to see how our customers have used this versatile eco canvas to tell their story. (more…)

Here we have another of our trio of new compostable products. Our new cutlery is compostable, and can therefore be disposed of together with food waste, collected by our UK-wide sustainable waste management service and commercially composted. After 6-12 weeks, all you food and packaging waste has been organically recycled into compost, or biogas and topsoil. Infinitely better than clogging up landfill with bits of plastic.

Apart from being compostable, it’s also elegant, sturdy and can take temperatures of up to 85C, so hot soup poses no problem. If you would like some samples, here’s the link.
