The Costita range represents a comprehensive suite of sustainable serving solutions, engineered for high-volume food service, catering, and international export. Manufactured from the naturally shed sheaths of the Areca catechu palm, these plates provide an industrial-grade, eco-friendly alternative to plastic and paper-based disposables without compromising on structural integrity or aesthetic appeal. Available Sizes & Specialized Use Cases The Costita line is available in a variety of dimensions to ensure precise portion control and optimal table space utilization: 6 Inch Round: Ideal for side servings, appetizers, and bread-and-butter service. 7 Inch Round: A versatile mid-size vessel for desserts and starters; bridges the gap between small appetizers and full meals. 8 Inch Round: Designed for standardized meal service and flat-profile side servings. 9 Inch Round: Specified for full-portion meal service and composed servings requiring increased surface area. 10 Inch Round: The standard for full-meal service, providing maximum coverage and stability for main courses. 12 Inch Round (Deep): A high-capacity, deep-wall vessel engineered for liquid-rich foods, heavy-set meals, and sauce-heavy entrees. Technical Engineering & Performance Every Costita plate is manufactured using a high-precision heat-pressing process at 180°C, resulting in a rigid, semi-hydrophobic surface. Durability: Features a controlled wall thickness of 1.5–2.5 mm, ensuring industrial-grade resistance to buckling and warping under heavy food weight. Thermal Range: Maintains structural integrity across a wide temperature spectrum, from -20°C to +120°C, making them safe for both cold-chain storage and microwave heating. Liquid Resistance: Naturally resists moisture and oil migration for 6–8 hours, preventing the plates from softening during extended service windows. Logistics & Export Optimization Costita products are specifically engineered to meet the operational requirements of high-volume importers and global supply chains: Nesting Efficiency: Designed for tight nesting to maximize carton density, optimize container space, and significantly reduce freight costs per unit. Transit Stability: Moisture content is stabilized at 6–7% to ensure biological stability and prevent warping or degradation during long-haul ocean transit. Standardized Handling: Uniform dimensions and predictable pack weights (e.g., 1.59 kg for mid-size SKUs) ensure efficient warehouse stacking and logistics management. Safety & Environmental Compliance Chemical-Free Processing: Produced using only pressurized steam and mechanical bonding—no synthetic binders, coatings, or plastic linings. Hygiene: Every unit undergoes UV treatment to ensure it is fully food-safe and meets rigorous international food safety standards. Sustainability: 100% compostable and biodegradable, supporting environmentally compliant procurement for the global hospitality sector.
