Product Description

6 Inch Square Areca Palm Leaf Plate – Export-Grade Bio-Disposable

The 6 inch square areca palm leaf plate is designed for food service and catering operations that require controlled portion presentation with improved spill management. The square geometry supports efficient portion control for side servings and plated meals, while the 1.5 inch deep profile provides added containment for semi-liquid foods, reducing spillage during handling and service across high-volume operations.

Manufactured from 100% naturally shed areca catechu palm sheath, the plate is heat-pressed at 180°C to form a semi-hydrophobic surface with integrated heat-pressed ribs that enhance rigidity. Natural wall thickness ranging from 1.5–2.5 mm delivers industrial-grade durability while maintaining consistent performance across a thermal range of −20°C to +120°C. The structure maintains liquid resistance for 6–8 hours without deformation, supporting extended service cycles.

From an export logistics standpoint, the plate is engineered to remain perfectly flat and nest tightly, maximizing packing density per master carton. Moisture content is maintained at 6–7% to ensure ocean transit stability and to reduce warping risk, improving export efficiency and lowering freight cost per unit for high-volume importers consolidating shipments.

Processing follows chemical-free washing using only water and heat, followed by UV treatment to meet food safety requirements. The plate is food-safe, compostable, and export-ready, supported by phytosanitary certification and aligned with regulatory expectations for US, EU, and global markets without the use of chemical coatings or additives.
