ASTM-D6400 Compostable Food Containers for Zoos

SUSTAINABLE ZOOLOGY PRODUCT TRENDS

Compostable Food Containers Eliminate Polyethylene & Foam Container Waste From Landfill

Zoos continue to lead the way in sustainability by reducing its impact on the environment whenever and wherever it can. Growing in popularity are sustainable food containers from MDS that provide a positive impact on facilities and our planet, and it's one that will leave a lasting impression with your guests!

If there is one thing animals learn quickly, it’s feeding time. Whether it’s cooked, raw, or from a can, the ability to control and separate portions and feeding stations can be a real chore, especially if there are multiple hungry animals present.

Reusable bowls can be an ordeal to gather and dispense. They are also costly to procure, require valuable water, and chemicals to clean are time consuming to dry, clean, and stack. If they aren’t properly sanitized, bowls can harbor bacteria and allergens that could comprise the health of an animal.

FASTER, EASIER FOOD DISPENSING. NO CLEAN-UP. SIMPLY DISPOSE IN TRASH!

Protect Animals From Bacteria & Cross-Contamination with a Fresh Biodegradable Portion Controlled Feeding Container Every Time!

Our Eco food containers are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes to accommodate different-sized food portions, animals, or applications like serving fish, vegetables, mice, fruit, nuts, and water. These can even be used for concession stand foods as well!

They're also designed for cold and hot foods, and they can be microwave heated or refrigerated, making them perfect for storing meal worms, crickets, worms, wax worms, leaches, minnows, and more. They are also used to grow seeds and mushrooms.
