Vegware is the World leader in the manufacture and supply of plant-based compostable food service packaging. This stylish and quality range of products are made from renewable, lower carbon or recycled materials. Vegware products can then be returned to the soil within 12 weeks when disposed of in a commercial composting facility. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a compostable bioplastic derived from plant sugars. Glucose is extracted from milled corn and then it is then fermented to produce lactic acid, which is processed into a polymer and made into pellets. PLA looks and feels like plastic but is plant based.
