Product Details
How did we create a piece of cutlery that helps to consume greenhouse gases? Our new Monogram® Carbon-Negative* Cutlery is made from a blend of three components: an innovative greenhouse gas-derived biomaterial combined with traditional polypropylene and minerals. The biomaterial is derived from a micro-organism that feeds on greenhouse gases, including methane, from old mines, landfills, dairy farms and other sources. The product’s negative carbon footprint is based on an independent life cycle assessment as verified by a third party*.
Features
- Serve Good®: Carbon-Negative*
- Made by combining polypropylene with minerals and a biomaterial derived from greenhouse gases
- Individually wrapped printed wrapper with key carbon-negative* messaging
- Performs like traditional plastic
- Can be used with hot or cold foods
- Black cutlery for an upscale appearance
Benefits
- Operators can now do their part to help support the reducing of greenhouse gas emissions attributable to single-use cutlery
- A good alternative to compostable cutlery in areas where composting can be challenging
- * Based on life cycle assessment of estimated emissions from raw materials through manufacturing and delivery to US Foods’ distribution centers verified by SCS Global Services per ISO 14044-2006. Electricity emissions include use of Renewable Energy Credits (RECs)
