Palm Products Releases Sustainability and Safety Policy


Palm Products is committed to using industry best practice and to introducing more sustainable and safer materials and production processes as they become available.

Food-Safety. There are legitimate questions on the safety of many plastics and of melamine. Palm Products has taken the following actions:

  • BPA-containing polycarbonate has been phased out.
  • Material sourcing is preferred from leading companies like Dupont and from companies with 100% traceability, as substitution and trust is considered an important issue.
  • Product labelling includes material type
  • If US or Euro authorities have safety concerns expressed as a “minimum daily safe intake” – such as exists for Polycarbonate and Melamine – these materials will not be used

Sustainability is determined by such factors as whether a product contains renewably source material, the material’s energy of manufacture, the economy of material usage in the product, the energy used during processing, the products useful life, and disposal. Palm Products has taken the following actions:

  • Sorona, a new 35% Renewably sourced material from Dupont is used in the new Sorona Plate and Bowl collection, even though it is significantly more expensive than inferior alternatives.
  • In sourcing raw materials, the energy used from extraction, through useful life to disposal is considered
  • Energy efficient European equipment is used
  • Palm Products is accredited to environmental standard ISO14001 which mandates that there is an effective on-going improvement plan to reduce environmental inputs and outputs
  • Long life materials are used – for example, products made from Tritan and Sorona are guaranteed unbreakable and dishwasher safe and so will out-last lesser material many times – saving replacement.
  • Designs are robust and long lasting
  • All materials used are 100% recyclable.
