The production of 100% plant-based PLA contributes less greenhouse gasses and uses less nonrenewable energy from source to resin than its petroleum-based counterparts, and the plants used are an annually renewable resource. Disposal options include industrial composting for biodegradability, incineration, recycling and landfill. Use a separate spoon for each material sampled to avoid cross contamination.; Features and Benefits; Green alternative to petroleum-based sampling tools; helps meet sustainability goals Comparable in strength and durability to polystyrene, polypropylene and other plastic resin sampling tools; Other Notes; Long handle, 17.8cm (7”), helps prevent personal contact with sampled material when reaching into bottles, jars and other confined areas Rim of each bowl has a flat edge to assist in collecting and measuring small amounts with accuracy; Legal Information; Bel-Art is a registered trademark of SP Scienceware, a division of SP
