Recycled and Compostable Tableware Attracts New Customers

ORANGE, Calif., Feb. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Green Movement has been underway for decades; however, recyclable and compostable products have become increasingly popular recently. Restaurant owners have found that a larger number of patrons will frequent their establishment if recycling programs are in place or if earth-friendly products are used. In an effort to join the cause, MyPaperShop.com has released a line of Earthwise® paper products that include recycled and tree free items. These discount recycled party supplies can be found exclusively online at My Paper Shop in bulk quantities and wholesale prices.

Available for the first time on My Paper Shop.Com are Earthwise® Tree Free products, a line of 100% compostable paper products only in municipal and industrial composting facilities. The line includes affordable beverage, dispenser and dinner napkins that feature a unique embossing and printed Earth Wise® Tree Free™ logo so your patrons are aware of your sustainable choice.

"100% Tree-Free" means that no wood pulp is used to manufacture the napkins so all resources used quickly renew in 12 months or less. Using these products will essentially reduce waste and the harmful effects it has on people and the environment. We have definitely seen a growth in this industry and can only hope it continues.

Earthwise® recycled paper products are constructed from 100% recycled content, 65-80% postconsumer content and are chlorine free. These environmentally responsible recycled paper products are certified by Green Seal™ and include beverage napkins, dinner napkins and guest hand towels.

"The waste created by products that are not environmentally friendly affects our own health. By "going green," we make a statement that we support the health of the public and the planet," says Claudia Rojas, My Paper Shop.Com National Sales Coordinator.

In addition to napkins, the Earthwise® Tree Free™ program offers tableware items that are constructed from bagasse, the natural by-product of sugar production. These Tree Free™ plates and bowls are cut resistant and leak proof for ideal performance. This is a great alternative to tree-based paper, plastic or foam products—an alternative that would mean this waste would not fill our landfills forever.

It is common knowledge that recyclable and compostable products are environmentally friendly, but are more expensive. This wholesale line, however, is more affordable online because it is sold in full bulk cases, which is ideal for restaurants and catering companies. These products are heavyweight to allow refrigeration, microwaving and storage for up to 36 hours without breaking down.

Also, Souffle portion cups and lids are conveniently available in three different sizes. Earthwise® compostable cutlery kits include the following: fork, knife, spoon, and an 80% Bagasse/ 20% recycled napkin. Both the contents and the wrappers of each kit are 100% compostable, a request we have received numerous times from restaurants.

This environmentally conscious line of products is a perfect solution for colleges and universities, caterers, restaurants, lodging, healthcare and stadiums.
