（NWEH-25 ）1000ml Rectangle Container – Eco-Friendly Cornstarch Packaging

Introduction

As global awareness of environmental sustainability rises, the foodservice industry is under increasing pressure to adopt packaging solutions that are both practical and eco-friendly. Traditional single-use plastics contribute significantly to landfill and ocean pollution, with studies indicating that millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans each year. In response, biodegradable and compostable materials such as cornstarch have emerged as a viable alternative.

The NWEH-25 (1000ml Rectangle Container) from Xiamen Dashan® represents a major advancement in sustainable food packaging. Designed for large meals, catering, and high-volume takeaway services, it combines durability, leak-proof performance, and eco-friendly material to meet the needs of modern food businesses. Its generous 1000ml capacity makes it ideal for family-sized meals, meal prep programs, and multi-component dishes, providing a reliable solution without compromising environmental responsibility.

This article will explore the NWEH-25 in depth, covering its design features, production process, customization options, practical applications, and advantages over other container sizes in the NWEH series.
