Compostable 24 oz Fiber Compost-A-Pak Containers

This is a working-kitchen container, not a marketing prop. 24 oz compostable fiber to-go boxes ship in B2B case quantities, reheat in the microwave without warping, freeze without embrittling, and hold hot food up to 220°F. They replace foam in school cafeterias, replace PE-coated paperboard in catering, and replace PFAS-treated fiber in any operation under California, New York, or Washington food-packaging law.

24 oz capacity in a 6.0 × 4.75 × 2.25 in footprint — designed to hold an entrée portion, a sandwich plus garnish, a saucy side, or a parfait. Cases of 200 stack tightly in the back of house and travel cleanly in delivery bags.

Operator pain points this product solves

1. PFAS food-packaging laws tightening every year

California AB 1200, AB 1201, New York’s Hazardous Packaging Act, and parallel laws in Washington, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Hawaii ban intentionally added PFAS in food packaging. These do not contain added PFAS at any stage of manufacture.

2. Procurement asking for documentation

Buyers with sustainability mandates need certificates: USDA Biobased, ASTM D-6400, FDA food contact, NSF Certified Compostable, TÜV AUSTRIA. All applicable certifications are listed below; lab/cert documents are available on request for B2B accounts.

3. Multi-state compliance complexity

Operators running locations across 6+ states cannot stock a different SKU per jurisdiction. This product clears the strictest of the state PFAS and biobased food-packaging rules currently in force, so a single SKU works in California, New York, Washington, and any state that follows.

4. Plastic-in-the-microwave concerns

Foodservice teams reheating prepared meals don’t want plastic film against hot food. This container is microwave-safe at reheat temperatures and has no film at all in the food path.

5. Compost contamination at the back of house

Single-material recovery — fully compostable with no plastic film, no wax, and no PFAS to separate from the fiber.

What sets this product apart

• No added PFAS — meets every U.S. state PFAS food-packaging law as of 2026.
• Unbleached plant fiber body — denser than coated paperboard; holds shape under heavy or saucy meals.
• Hot food safe to 220°F — soups, stews, hot pastas, curries, casseroles, baked dishes.
• Microwave safe — reheat directly without transferring; no plastic in the food path.
• Freezer safe — does not embrittle below 0°F; meal-prep ready.
• Oil and grease resistant — barrier is the natural fiber itself, no synthetic coating.
• Composts in 2–4 months in a commercial composting facility, ≤12 months in home compost.
• Case of 200 — sized for catering, school dining, and operator-scale foodservice.
• Gluten-free and allergen-friendly material.

Questions operators ask before switching

What is the maximum hot-food temperature for this fiber to-go box?

Yes. The body is rated for hot food up to 220°F. Hot pastas, curries, soups (with a lid), stews, and baked entrées hold without warping.

How many fiber to-go boxes fit on a pallet?

Yes. They stack tightly when empty (200 per case, 36 cases per pallet for 7,200 units per pallet) and stack safely with a lid when filled. The footprint fits standard foodservice slots and delivery bags.

What are the exact dimensions of this fiber to-go box?

Outer dimensions are 6.0 × 4.75 × 2.25 in (15.2 × 12.1 × 5.7 cm). This footprint fits standard takeout bags, hot bags, delivery cubes, and most foodservice tray slots. Stack height in storage scales linearly with case quantity and shape.

Will the fiber to-go box survive reheating in the microwave on the line?

Yes, the fiber to-go box is microwave safe at reheat temperatures. Reheat without transferring to another plate. Avoid using in conventional ovens above the rated heat tolerance or under broilers.

How long does the fiber to-go box take to compost?

In a commercial composting facility (ASTM D-6400 conditions), it breaks down in 2 to 4 months. In a properly maintained home compost system (TÜV AUSTRIA OK compost HOME), it takes 6 to 12 months depending on temperature, moisture, and turning frequency.

Which state PFAS food-packaging laws do these fiber to-go boxes satisfy?

Yes. Because no PFAS is intentionally added, they comply with California AB 1200 / AB 1201, New York’s Hazardous Packaging Act, and parallel laws in Washington, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Hawaii. Lab test reports are available for B2B accounts on request.

How do I confirm the PFAS-free claim on these fiber to-go boxes?

Yes. No PFAS chemicals are added at any stage of manufacturing. Grease and oil resistance comes from the unbleached plant fiber itself, not from PFAS coatings. They meet PFAS-restriction laws in California, New York, Washington, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, Hawaii, and other states banning intentionally-added PFAS in food packaging.

Which lids fit this fiber to-go box?

Three lid options typically fit foodservice containers in this size range: clear PLA dome lids for visible merchandising of salads, parfaits, and bakery; clear PLA flat lids for stackable delivery; and matching plant-fiber lids for opaque, plant-based compostable closure. Lids are sold separately by the case — pair by capacity and footprint.

Can these fiber to-go boxes be used in school cafeterias under sustainable-procurement rules?

Yes. They meet PFAS-free, biobased, and compostable procurement requirements many state school systems now mandate: no added PFAS, double TÜV compostability (HOME and INDUSTRIAL), USDA Biobased, ASTM D-6400, NSF Certified Compostable. Documentation is available on request.
