The Bowls Range

Ecodyne palm leaf bowls are available in Classic (22–28 mm depth) and Standard (35–50 mm depth) profiles, in round and square formats, from 2.5" to 7" diameter. Made from a single naturally fallen areca catechu palm leaf — no chemicals, dyes or additives. Tested to LFGB standards and confirmed compliant by TÜV Rheinland. The Classic bowl is designed for dips, dry sides and canape portions. The Standard bowl holds soups, curries and grain dishes with 160–280 ml capacity.

Pack specification: 25 pieces per pack, 19-micron polyolefin shrink, multicolour label. Outer carton: 3-ply corrugated, 18 pf burst factor, 100 pieces. Minimum order: one 40ft HC. 10-day container loading guarantee. 1% per day delay penalty. 3 million+ units in standing inventory across all bowl SKUs.

All bowls share the same material specification as the plate range: single naturally fallen areca catechu palm leaf, water-cleaned, CNC mould pressed at 200°C. No adhesives, dyes, coatings or chemical treatments at any stage. The natural grain and texture of each leaf makes every bowl visually unique — a characteristic that buyers in premium hospitality markets consistently note as a positive differentiator from uniform moulded bamboo or bagasse alternatives.

Mixed bowl SKUs across both lines and shapes are accepted in a single 40ft HC container at no extra charge. Bowls also pack efficiently with the plate range — most importer orders combine plates, bowls and platters in a single mixed-SKU container.

Classic vs Standard Bowls

Same material, same manufacturing process, same certifications. The distinction is the depth — shallow for dips and sides, deep for soups and curries. Buyers consistently confuse the two; we never let the distinction be ambiguous on the page or on the SKU label.

Carton sizes are for standard packing: 100 pieces per carton in shrink-wrapped inner packs of 25 (10 for platters). Smaller inner packs, such as 10 pieces, make the carton slightly larger; exact carton sizes are confirmed with your quote. Sizes are nominal — each piece is pressed from a single natural leaf. Plan a mixed load in the container calculator; a 40ft HC typically carries 300,000–350,000 pieces with a normal mix of plates, platters and bowls.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Classic and Standard palm leaf bowls?

The Classic line bowl has a shallow 22–28 mm depth — designed for dips, sauces and dry side portions. The Standard line bowl is deeper at 35–50 mm — designed for soups, curries, stews and grain dishes that need liquid retention. Same material, same certifications, same biodegradation rate. Functional difference only.

Are Ecodyne palm leaf bowls tested to LFGB standards and confirmed compliant?

Yes. The bowl range is tested to LFGB standards and confirmed compliant (TÜV Rheinland test report) — the German food contact safety standard mandatory for sale in Germany and required across most EU food service markets. Test reports are available to wholesale buyers on request at no additional charge.

How many palm leaf bowls come in a carton?

100 pieces per outer carton — four packs of 25, each shrink-wrapped in 19-micron polyolefin film with a multicolour product label. The carton is 3-ply corrugated with an 18 pf burst factor, built to withstand sea freight conditions.

What is the EN 13432 status of the bowls?

EN 13432 tested — PASS. The bowls naturally biodegrade in 90–120 days in standard soil conditions without requiring an industrial composting facility. LFGB §30/§31 food-contact testing by TÜV Rheinland is confirmed and current.

Can the palm leaf bowls be used in a microwave?

Yes — for 3–4 minutes at standard power. The bowls are also oven safe for up to 10 minutes at 120–180°C, kept away from the heating element, and freezer safe with no time limit. These properties make them suitable for soup reheating, frozen meal storage and institutional catering applications.

What is the minimum order for palm leaf bowls wholesale?

Minimum order is one 40ft HC container — approximately 300,000 to 350,000 pieces with a normal mix of large and small plates, platters and bowls. Mixed bowl SKUs (and bowls combined with plates and platters) are accepted in a single container at no extra charge.
