Fully compliant with European Union EN 13432 compostability standards and Moroccan Law 77-15 single-use plastic restrictions. Engineered for high heat, grease resistance, and retail shelf perfection.
The Kingdom of Morocco has positioned itself as an environmental trailblazer in North Africa. Following the historic implementation of Law No. 77-15 (popularly known as the "Zero Plastique" initiative) which strictly banned the manufacture, import, export, and marketing of plastic shopping bags, the Moroccan regulatory landscape has dramatically expanded its scope. Today, commercial buyers across Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Tangier, and Agadir face stringent consumer expectations and legislative pressures to eliminate single-use expanded polystyrene (EPS) and conventional polypropylene dinnerware from food service environments.
For Moroccan hospitality chains, eco-resorts, corporate caterers, and packaging distributors, compliance requires more than simple "biodegradable" labeling. European regulatory alignment—specifically adherence to the EN 13432 standard—has emerged as the definitive benchmark for legal import clearance through the Administration of Customs and Indirect Taxes (ADII) and for verification by the National Office for Food Safety (ONSSA).
What is EN 13432 Compliance? EN 13432 is the rigorous European standard that defines the technical requirements for packaging recoverable through industrial composting and biodegradation. To earn EN 13432 certification, tableware must demonstrate 90% disintegration within 12 weeks under controlled composting conditions, total absence of ecotoxic heavy metals, and zero adverse impact on final compost quality. Our factory's sugarcane bagasse and palm leaf lines hold verified EN 13432 pass certificates issued by leading accredited international testing bodies (including TÜV Rheinland and SGS).
As direct manufacturers, we supply high-volume Moroccan importers with complete technical dossier verification, ensuring that every 40-foot High Cube (40ft HC) shipping container entering the Ports of Tanger Med or Casablanca transitions seamlessly through customs inspection without risk of detention or chemical compliance rejection.
Not all eco-friendly tableware performs equally under the thermal and moisture demands of traditional North African food service. Below is an engineering comparison of our three primary raw material categories.
Thermoformed Agricultural Residue
Modified Plant Starch Blend (PLA/PBAT)
100% Raw Fallen Sheath (Heat Pressed)
Our OEM and wholesale supply lines are engineered to meet the unique operational requirements of Morocco's diverse gastronomic and hospitality ecosystems.
High-end coastal resorts in Agadir and luxury boutique Riads in Marrakech require tableware that conveys eco-luxury without compromising performance. Our raw Areca palm leaf platters and modern minimalist bagasse dinnerware offer a premium, artisanal presentation that enhances guest experience during outdoor buffets, poolside dining, and private desert galas.
Morocco’s commercial hubs demand large-scale catering infrastructure for diplomatic functions, international trade summits, and corporate galas. Our 5-compartment pulp trays and heavy-duty round sugarcane plates deliver rigid, non-flexing strength under heavy portion loads, allowing caterers to serve rich harira, tagines, and pastillas cleanly and efficiently.
With the rapid growth of food delivery platforms across Casablanca and Tangier, urban fast-food operators require stack-stable, oil-resistant containers. Our sugarcane bagasse lunch boxes and cornstarch plates feature secure tab-locking mechanisms and thermal steam vents, preserving food texture during transit while completely replacing outlawed plastic packaging.
The transition toward EN 13432 certified compostable packaging across Morocco is accelerated by three powerful macro-economic trends:
Eliminate middleman markups and supply chain uncertainty by working directly with an integrated, solar-powered export manufacturing enterprise.
Our primary manufacturing complex spans 90 automated production units equipped with high-precision CNC hydraulic thermoforming presses operating at 200°C. By combining extreme thermal pressure with zero synthetic binders, artificial dyes, or PFAS fluorinated coatings, we yield tablewares of unmatched structural density and pristine hygienic purity.
We maintain direct agricultural partnerships with over 810 certified farming families across our raw material sourcing zones. Every sheath and bagasse fiber batch undergoes an 8-stage processing routine: raw gathering, automated hydro-pressure washing, natural soaking, high-heat pressing, 24-hour moisture-stabilization drying, double UV-C sterilization, 100% optical quality inspection, and export carton sealing.
Our operations are audited under the amfori BSCI framework for social compliance and hold dual ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management) certifications issued by TÜV India.
Container Export Guarantee: For Moroccan full container load (FCL) buyers, we provide a guaranteed 10-day order-to-loading dispatch timeline from FOB export docks. All contracts include a standardized 1%-per-day shipment delay penalty clause written directly in favor of the buyer, ensuring absolute schedule reliability for your inventory planning.

Essential technical, commercial, and logistical answers for procurement managers and regional distributors.
Our standard wholesale MOQ is one 40-foot High Cube (40ft HC) shipping container. Floor-loaded, a 40ft HC container accommodates approximately 67 m³ of volume, which translates to roughly 300,000 to 350,000 individual tableware pieces depending on SKU mix. We accept mixed-SKU configurations (combining round plates, square plates, compartment trays, and bowls) within a single container at no additional surcharge, enabling distributors to launch a complete eco-range simultaneously.
We regularly export under FOB pricing terms to major Moroccan maritime portals, primarily Port of Tanger Med and Port of Casablanca. Ocean freight transit from our primary loading port (New Mangalore Port / Nhava Sheva) to Tanger Med typically ranges between 18 to 22 transit days. Complete shipping documents—including Bill of Lading, Phytosanitary Certificate, Certificate of Origin, Packing List, Commercial Invoice, and EN 13432 Test Dossier—are dispatched digitally and via express courier prior to vessel arrival.
Our products undergo a rigorous 24-hour forced-air drying cycle at 60°C to achieve a calibrated internal moisture content below 8%. Each inner pack is moisture-sealed in recyclable shrink film with desiccant packets, preventing ambient moisture absorption during ocean transit and long-term warehousing in humid coastal regions like Casablanca, Agadir, or Tangier. Shelf life is guaranteed for up to 24 months when stored in clean, dry ambient indoor warehouse conditions.
Yes. In strict alignment with updated EU environmental health mandates and Moroccan ONSSA import requirements, our tableware formulation is 100% free of fluorinated compounds (PFAS, PFOS, PFOA). Hydrophobic and oleophobic properties are achieved through mechanical pulp refining and natural plant-based wax treatments applied during high-heat thermoforming.
Yes. We currently manufacture private-label tableware for 32 international brands. Our OEM service covers bilingual (French/Arabic/English) retail packaging design, customized barcode integration, shelf-ready inner packs, counter display cartons, and custom master carton branding. OEM production requires a minimum order of one 40-foot container per artwork run.
Absolutely. Both sugarcane bagasse and Areca palm leaf substrates exhibit superior thermal stability compared to conventional paper plates or thin PLA plastics. They hold hot liquids and oil-rich meals (up to 100°C for bagasse, and up to 200°C for palm leaf) for over 45 minutes without softening, leaking, bending, or imparting any chemical odor or taste to the food.
