Birch Forks

This 24-Pack of Birch Forks is 100% Compostable and FSC Certified, made completely with Birch from sustainably managed forests, and is perfect to replace the typical plastic fork. The forks have an enhanced design with increased thickness and sharper fork tongs and are compostable in both home and industrial systems. The forks contain no PFAs (poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances) or other flourinated chemicals and are made of 100% natural materials. 

In search for materials with the strength to cut food while remaining compostable (and affordable), Greenlid chose sustainably grown Birch. Birch trees are an abundant and relatively fast-growing hardwood species that cause minimal destruction of biodiversity when cut down. Birch is a sustainable and durable choice that has less impact on the environment than alternative hardwoods, which have lengthier growing periods. They can also be grown more locally than other popular sustainable options, such as bamboo, that incur additional harm due to overseas shipping.

About the Brand: Greenlid uses only 100% natural and compostable materials such as birch, palm leaves, plant fiber, recycled cardboard, and bamboo for their products, and helps to keep plastic out of the environment with their use. Greenlid does not use PFAs (poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances) or any other flourinated chemicals that are often added to food packaging to provide grease and water resistance. A close relative of Teflon, PFAs and other fluorinated chemicals are considered “forever chemicals” and accumulate in the environment. Since these chemicals can permeate food, air, soil and water, they also pose a growing threat to our health. Exposure to PFAs has been linked to cancer, liver damage, thyroid disease, fertility issues, and possibly more.
