Product Spotlights
Welcome to Qingdao Lucentsea Business Co., Ltd. We are a trading company based in Qingdao, Shandong, China, focused on sustainable food service supplies. We understand today's caterers and restaurants need products that perform well while supporting their environmental goals. Our 4-inch Biodegradable Small Saucer, made from molded pulp raw material, is designed to meet that demand. It offers a practical, sturdy and biodegradable base for appetizers, snacks, canapes, and side dishes, making it an essential item for eco-conscious professionals.
This small saucer has a diameter of 4 inches (about 101.6 mm), making it ideal for tapas, sushi, olives, cheese cubes, dried fruits, nuts, dips, and dessert bites. The molded pulp material gives it a smooth and even structure while remaining lightweight. Because it is made from renewable plant fibers, this plate helps reduce dependency on single-use plastics and is biodegradable under appropriate composting conditions. It can withstand temperatures up to 100°C, so you can serve warm appetizers or use it in the microwave for quick reheating.
- Eco-friendly and biodegradable: The saucer is produced from molded pulp, a renewable resource. When disposed of in a commercial composting facility, it breaks down naturally into organic matter without leaving harmful residues.
- Microwave safe up to 100°C: You can safely place small quantities of food in the microwave using this saucer. This feature saves time and reduces extra dish washing for busy food service operations.
- Compact 4-inch size: The small footprint is perfectly sized for appetizer portions. It reduces food waste and gives an elegant presentation for canapes, shot desserts, or dipping sauces.
- Lightweight yet sturdy: Molded pulp has a rigid structure that holds its shape during normal use. It is strong enough to handle bite-sized foods without bending or flexing.
- Customizable surface and color: The natural finish is appealing for brands that value organic aesthetics. Custom colors and logos are available upon request, allowing private-label catering companies to create a distinct look.
- Space-saving storage: These saucers nest neatly, saving shelf space and reducing transportation volume. This also contributes to lower shipping costs.
- Versatile uses: Suitable for restaurants, hotels, buffets, party trays, food trucks, cafes, and home entertaining. It offers a convenient disposable option that still looks elegant.
