Eliminate Single-Use Plastic Landfill & Pollution
Using an item once and then throwing it away is not sensible. Why manufacture a product that will only be used for a brief duration of time, especially when the material will take centuries to break down in landfill?
Unfortunately, this is the reality of single-use plastics. Every year over four hundred million tons of plastic waste is generated, 36% of that is dedicated for single-use items like food packaging and straws.
What happens to all that plastic? Almost 85% of it ends up in landfill, where it will sit for hundreds or even thousands of years.
STRAWFISH® IS REVOLUTIONIZING INDUSTRY
StrawFish® offers straws designed to look like plastic, feel like plastic and work like plastic but are one hundred percent biodegradable per ASTM D5526 standard.
A great alternative to serve guests at your food and beverage operation, StrawFish® are single-use and these Eco-straws can be disposed in traditional waste where it will break down in a landfill within weeks. There is no need to send to a commercial composting facility.

As consumer awareness of environmental issues mounts, more businesses are searching for “greener” ways to operate more sustainably. Today you can join companies such as Royal Caribbean, Marriott, Flanigan’s Seafood and Grill, Shake Shack and take a significant step forward in cleaning up coastlines, reducing plastic pollution and positively impacting the environment.
