Sustainable and Green Manufacturing is the New Face
Paper trays, fiber-based trays, sugarcane trays, palm leaf trays, corn-starch trays, bagasse trays, and even plant-based polymers are key alternatives to plastic trays and provide a significant challenge to the plastic trays sector, reducing its growth.
