Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Falmouth Pie Company, a popular coastal bakery in Cornwall, switched from plastic cutlery after receiving customer feedback about their environmental impact. They needed a disposable option that was both sturdy and aligned with their local, sustainable ethos.
"Our customers are very eco-aware, and so are we. Moving to these compostable forks was a no-brainer. They're strong enough for our steak pies, and people genuinely appreciate that we're not handing out plastic anymore. It's been fantastic for our reputation."
Robert Davies – Owner
The bakery reported a notable drop in bin liner usage and a 20% uplift in positive social media comments mentioning their eco-friendly packaging within three months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these compostable paper forks 155mm strong enough for hot food?
A: Yes, they are designed to be sturdy and work well with a wide range of hot and cold dishes, from pasta and salads to baked potatoes and curries.
Q: Can I put these in my home compost bin?
A: They are certified for commercial composting, which uses higher temperatures to break them down quickly. Home composting conditions vary and may not be effective.
Q: Is there any plastic or wax coating on them?
A: No, these forks are made from paper and are free from conventional plastic coatings, which is why they are able to be commercially composted.
Q: What is the difference between 'biodegradable' and 'compostable'?
A: 'Compostable' (to EN13432 standard) means it breaks down into natural elements in a set timeframe. 'Biodegradable' is a vague term with no set timeframe and can sometimes mean breaking down into microplastics.

A: Keep them in a cool, dry place inside their original packaging to protect them from moisture and dust, ensuring they stay in perfect condition.

A: Yes, they are a safe alternative to plastic or sharp metal cutlery, with no risk of splinters like you might find with some wooden options.
Q: What does the EN13432 certification guarantee?
A: It guarantees that over 90% of the product will break down into soil, water, and CO2 within 12 weeks in a commercial composting facility.
Q: Do these forks have any taste to them?
A: No, unlike some wooden alternatives, these paper forks are completely tasteless and won't affect the flavour of your food.

Explore more from Fiesta CompostableWhat Does 'EN13432 Certified' Actually Mean for Your Business?
You've probably seen 'biodegradable' and 'compostable' used everywhere, but the EN13432 certification is the real deal. Think of it as a strict, legally-recognised 'MOT' for eco-friendly products. For these forks to earn this standard, they must be proven to disintegrate by over 90% in an industrial composting facility within just 12 weeks. They also have to break down into natural elements like water, CO2, and biomass, leaving no toxic residue behind. This means they genuinely contribute to creating nutrient-rich compost, unlike some 'biodegradable' items that just crumble into microplastics. Choosing a certified product gives you, and your customers, complete confidence that you're part of a real, circular solution to waste.
