Products
You can buy them online at our store www.ecoproductsstore.com or you can get them from a distributor. Use this tool to find a distributor in your area.
You can find product specific information on our product information pages but in general:
| Product material | Freezer | Microwave | Oven |
| Paper | Yes (short term storage only) | No | No |
| PLA | No | No | No |
| Sugarcane | Yes (short term storage only) | Yes | No |
| RPET | Yes (short term storage only) | No | No |
Paper and Sugarcane products can go in the freezer, although they are not airtight, so freshness and freezer burn can become issues if left there too long. PLA and RPET can become brittle when frozen, so we don't recommend putting these products in the freezer.
While our hot cups, soup cups and some containers are designed for hot foods, they are not designed for the extreme heat of the microwave. Microwaves will cause them to warp, leak or even catch on fire. Unless a disposable product says "microwave safe" on it, it's a good idea to use a glass container to reheat your food instead.
Lined molded fiber products will hold liquids well and are grease- and cut- resistant. Unlined fiber products work well too, but like paper, they may be more likely to lose strength when used with very hot foods or liquids.
No, our products are not edible. They are FDA approved for food contact, but are not considered edible/digestible. Even though many of our products are derived from plants, they are plastic and should not be eaten.
Paper hot cups and soup cups are designed to hold hot drinks and food, but not to withstand the extreme heat of a microwave. At best, the glue at the seam can loosen and the cup will start to leak. At worst, the cups can even catch on fire! This is true for all paper cups, not just ours. We recommend microwaving in glass or ceramic containers labeled as microwave safe.
