These trays are made from pulp which originates from,

•Clean waste from onsite corrugators

•Clean waste from onsite box production processes

•Clean waste from approved paper supplier’s

Products have been tested and found to fully meet maceration standards, which further confirms their Compostability.

We believe in Recycling and would encourage recycling of these punnets & trays. As they are made from paper & board not only are they Compostable, but can be recycled with your newspapers and paper.

Alternately these punnets & trays can be placed in your compost bin. . see compost info here.

Composting process needs to be a mixture of carbon and nitrogen materials. The microorganisms use carbon (browns) for energy and nitrogen (greens) for growth.

Greens are materials that are soft and sappy. Most of our kitchen wastes are greens as are grass clippings and freshly dug weeds. These nitrogen-rich materials contain proportionately less carbon and high levels of moisture and decompose more easily.

Browns are the drier, fibrous materials such as paper, cardboard, and woody prunings. They contain proportionately higher levels of carbon and lower levels of moisture and tend to decompose more slowly as a result. This is not a disadvantage however. Browns provide structure to your compost heap by keeping open the spaces which store the air and moisture essential to the composting process.

You will find that your finished compost contains a proportion of undecomposed browns which you should put back into your bin to continue decomposing.

Successful composting depends on combining these greens and browns in balance.
