When it comes to hosting a party at home, who would want to dirty the good cutlery and glassware, especially with so many guests? And as we know, disposable items involve massive use of plastic because it’s practical and easy to use. However, the environmental impact of this choice is quite significant, but how can you organize a sustainable party? In this article, we will explain why compostable products are ideal for achieving your ecological goal.

How to host a sustainable party with compostable products

What compostable means

Before discovering how to host a sustainable party, we need to explain what compostable means. Compostable refers to a product made from organic materials that degrade through a composting process, i.e., through microorganisms. This allows them to transform into compost, a useful fertilizer for the soil rich in nutrients. Materials used for compostable products can be cellulose or corn starch, which have different product applications.

Cutlery

Starting with compostable products to use at a party, we can undoubtedly begin with cutlery. Forks, knives, spoons, and teaspoons are all now made from compostable materials. In Clendy's case, our cutlery is made from corn starch, making it perfect for appetizers, first courses, main courses, and even desserts, and it can be perfectly disposed of in organic waste. Plus, compostable cutlery can be made in many different colors, making it perfect for any occasion.

Glasses and straws

Water, soft drinks, coffee, but also cocktails and hot beverages: compostable glasses and small cups are a must for an eco-friendly party. Thanks to their paper composition, often made from cellulose, they can be disposed of in both paper and organic waste, when indicated on the packaging. Compostable straws can also be paired with glasses, ideal for a cocktail party as they are also made from cellulose, and why not, even stirrers for coffee, often made from wood.

Other compostable elements

Not just cutlery and glasses, but a truly sustainable party also consists of other elements, such as compostable decorations, like biodegradable balloons, wooden garlands, and everything that aims to reduce environmental impact. Not only will you have the practicality of single-use products, but it will also demonstrate your commitment to ecology.
