Question from Leonard
Hi,
We have developed these plates and bowls made of Areca palm leaves which are completely biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
To protect their natural state from moist, heat or extreme weather conditions, we will have to coat them with something similar to plastic but not made of chemicals or other toxic agents which is completely natural.
Do you have any suggestions/recommendations that you could offer which we could develop?
Thanks in advance,
Leonard

Something similar to plastic, but all natural….I don’t have an exact answer off the top of my head, but I would go in the direction of finishes used on wood, which usually include some kind of oil and sometimes beeswax. It would, of course, also need to be edible.
