The plastic bans vary between states and territories, as does the stance on compostable bioplastic alternatives. Visit our handy state-by-state plastic bans guide here.
NSW, SA, ACT and WA do not permit the use of compostable bioplastic cutlery regardless of certification achieved. If your business operates in these states, consider instead our wooden or paper cutlery alternatives.
Please note Vegware are not responsible for or party to any current or future plastic bans in Australia. Any questions or concerns regarding the plastic bans and their potential impact on your business should be directed to your state EPA (Environmental Protection Authority).
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a compostable bioplastic made from plants - primarily corn - not fossil fuels.
Manufacturing bioplastics such as PLA produces significantly less carbon than conventional plastics such as PS or PET, and all Vegware PLA products are commercially compostable where accepted.
Clear PLA varieties are suitable for cold use only, however CPLA (Crystallised PLA) is suitable for both hot and cold.
