With more cities banning styrofoam and plastics, as just one element of the Green movement sweeping the world, the availability of EarthShell is a timely transitional product as it offers a genuinely green alternative. EarthShell foodservice disposable packaging, plates and bowls are made primarily from natural limestone and starch from potatoes, wheat or corn.

 

Traditionally, food packaging and disposable dinnerware has been constructed of styrofoam, plastic or bleached paper, all of which are quickly becoming politically incorrect due to their environmental profile and impact.

The new packaging poses substantially fewer risks to wildlife than polystyrene foam packaging because this patented, innovative technology is formed from a combination of simple, abundant, renewable materials, such as limestone and starch, into a material that, like leaves and grass, is 100 percent biodegradable and recyclable through composting. It can be composted in a commercial facility, where available, or in your backyard. EarthShell is seeking to license its technology globally.
