Are your palm leaf plates sustainably sourced?
Yes, palm leaf plates are sustainably sourced. They are made from naturally fallen palm leaves, which are collected without harming the trees. The leaves are gathered during the off-season when they would otherwise decompose on the ground, making use of a natural, renewable resource. No trees are cut down in the process, and the production of these plates has minimal environmental impact. Additionally, palm leaf plates are compostable, offering an eco-friendly alternative to single-use plastic or paper products.
