Kraft Bowls with PET Lids (500ml) are a smaller version of the eco-friendly food packaging option designed to hold individual portions of food. These are commonly used in restaurants, food trucks, cafes, catering services, and takeout/delivery settings. The 500ml size is ideal for single servings of soups, salads, grains, pasta, or smaller mixed meals.

Key Features:

1. Material:

• Kraft Paper Bowl: The bowl is made from Kraft paperboard, which is durable, biodegradable, and typically made from recycled materials or sustainably sourced paper. The Kraft paper gives the bowl a natural, rustic appearance.
• PET Lid: The lid is made from PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate), a strong, clear plastic that is commonly used for food packaging. PET is lightweight, transparent, and provides a secure seal. While it is not compostable, PET is highly recyclable in most locations.

2. Size:

• 500ml Capacity: This size holds approximately 500 milliliters (or 0.5 liters) of food, equivalent to around 16 ounces. It’s a perfect portion size for items like salads, pasta dishes, soups, bowls, fruit, snacks, and side dishes. It can also be used for smaller entrées or dessert portions.

3. Environmental Impact:

• Compostable Bowl: The Kraft paper bowl is typically compostable if it is not coated with non-compostable plastic or other synthetic materials. When disposed of properly, it can break down in a composting environment, helping reduce landfill waste.
• Recyclable PET Lid: The PET lid, while recyclable, is not compostable, so it should be recycled appropriately. Make sure to check if your local recycling facility accepts PET lids, as this may vary by region.

4. Design:

• Grease and Moisture Resistance: The Kraft paper is coated or treated to make it resistant to grease and moisture, helping to maintain the integrity of the bowl and prevent leaks.
• Clear PET Lid: The clear PET lid provides a great way to display the food inside, which is especially useful for takeout, delivery, or events. The lid fits tightly to help keep food secure and maintain freshness.
