The wet-pressed molded fiber spoon is a next-generation eco-friendly disposable utensil crafted from renewable plant fibers such as sugarcane bagasse and bamboo pulp. Unlike traditional paper spoons that turn soggy in hot soup or plastic spoons that take centuries to decompose, our wet-pressed spoon delivers a premium user experience with zero environmental guilt.
Manufactured through an advanced vacuum forming and hot-press drying process, the spoon features a smooth, burr-free surface that rivals the feel of conventional plastic utensils. It is heat-resistant up to 100°C, waterproof and oil-proof, and can hold hot soup for over 3 hours without softening. After use, it fully degrades in 90 days under composting conditions, returning to nature without a trace.
As governments worldwide phase out single-use plastics through regulations such as the EU's Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUP) and China's plastic ban, the wet-pressed molded fiber spoon offers a scalable, cost-effective, and certified solution for food service businesses, catering companies, and eco-conscious brands.

1 Premium Wet-Pressed Process
Unlike dry-pressed pulp products, the wet-pressing process involves forming wet fiber preforms on a mold, then immediately transferring them to a hot-press drying mold. This results in:
• A dense fiber structure with superior strength and rigidity
• A smooth, polished surface with no rough edges or burrs
• Consistent wall thickness for reliable performance
• Excellent mold definition for detailed brand logos
2 100% Natural Plant-Based Material
Made from annually renewable agricultural residues:
• Sugarcane Bagasse — A byproduct of the sugar industry, abundant and low-cost
• Bamboo Pulp — Fast-growing, requires no pesticides, naturally antibacterial
• Wheat Straw — Agricultural waste repurposed into valuable products
No plastic, no BPA, no fluorescent agents, no harmful chemicals. Safe for direct food contact.
