Biodegradable food service disposables include various tableware such as cups, containers, trays, straws, bottles, food service wraps, skewers etc. They made from naturally-occurring substances such as sugarcane fibre (Bagasse), corn starch, wheat bran, bamboo, areca nut sheaths, dried leaves such as palm leaves, coconut coir, etc.

In Europe, the market is currently being driven by the growing environmental concerns due to the large-scale usage of plastic and paper disposables. Paper disposables made from wood fibre are causing the destruction of millions of acres of forests and the inner polyurethane layer restricts their biodegradability. Moreover, plastic ban in several countries and rising consumer awareness about the environmental impact posed by plastic and paper disposables have resulted into increased preference for completely biodegradable alternatives. Additionally, increasing regulations and bans against single-use plastic and paper disposables is also driving the demand in the region. Currently, the recycling facilities in Europe are not sufficient to process all the wastes generated from the disposal of plastic and paper disposables. As a result, the government is promoting the use of completely biodegradable alternatives as a waste management strategy and to reduce the costs related to disposal and recycling. As a result, these products are being used in significant volumes in food service restaurants. In addition, technological advancements, driven by public-private partnerships, have also made biodegradable alternatives cost-competitive with petroleum-based disposable products.
