Frequently Asked Questions about Containers for Hot Food:

Are there biodegradable hot food containers?

Most hot food containers will not biodegrade. Paper containers from Green Paper Products are designed to be disposed of in a commercial composting facility. These containers are tested and certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute. They are not intended for home composting.

What are the best paper containers for hot foods?

The best paper containers for hot foods are ones that are strong, durable, and made from sustainable materials. We recommend NoTree® paper food containers from Green Paper Products, as they are made from sustainable and renewable bamboo fiber.

What are compostable hot food containers?

Compostable hot food containers from Green Paper Products are containers made from materials that will decompose in a commercial compost facility. These materials include wood fiber, sugarcane, bamboo, and wheat straw fiber. These containers are tested by the Biodegradable Products Institute or CMA® to meet ASTM 6400/6868 standards.

Are paper containers for hot foods recyclable?

Most food containers from Green Paper Products are recyclable. The fiber in these products is valuable and can be used to make new paper products. When recycling, containers should be clean and dry, with all food removed. Please check with your local recycling provider to determine how to sort these types of products.

Are compostable hot food containers microwave-safe?

It depends on the material. Uncoated fiber containers (wood pulp, sugarcane, bamboo, wheat straw) generally hold up fine for reheating. Containers with a PLA lining are not microwave-safe, since PLA can soften under microwave heat. Check the material listed on the individual product page before microwaving.

Can compostable hot food containers go in the oven?

No. Our compostable hot food containers are built to hold hot food, not to withstand direct oven or broiler heat, which can scorch or ignite paper and fiber packaging. Use the microwave-safe option noted on the product page for reheating, or transfer food to an oven-safe dish first.
