Good Start Packaging is a wholesaler of compostable foodware and packaging. It is a certified B Corp, it labels product lines that contain no added PFAS, and its site carries educational material of a kind most suppliers do not bother with, including a tool for finding a composting facility near you. PLEET has no commercial relationship with the company and takes no payment for this page.
Why it is listed
- B Corp certification, the company-level criterion PLEET uses for suppliers.
- "No PFAS" product lines, which matter because fluorinated grease barriers are the most common hidden problem in fibre foodware.
- A "Find a Composter" tool, which addresses the question most compostable foodware fails on: whether anyone nearby will actually compost it.
How to buy well
As with any supplier, check each product in BPI's catalogue or CMA's accepted list before ordering in bulk, and confirm with your hauler. Reusables remain the first choice for everything served on site. Compostables are for the takeout that cannot be avoided.
