Molded fiber clamshells are quickly becoming a top choice for takeout packaging—and for good reason. Made from renewable materials like sugarcane or bamboo fiber, these containers are fully compostable and biodegradable, offering an eco-friendly alternative to plastic or foam.
Beyond sustainability, molded fiber clamshells are also strong and heat-resistant, making them suitable for a wide range of food items, including hot entrees, fried foods, and saucy dishes. They have a naturally rigid structure that helps prevent leaks and withstands the demands of transport.
They also have a clean, natural look that aligns well with modern branding and consumer preferences for greener packaging. As regulations around single-use plastics tighten and customers prioritize sustainability, molded fiber clamshells are proving to be both a practical and marketable solution for foodservice operators.
