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; Wide handles let you grip firmly and provide just enough stiffness to easily sample packed powders and other firm materials Unique flat bottom shape allows convenient duo use as weighing boats to save time and assure accuracy; Legal Information; Bel-Art is a registered trademark of SP Scienceware, a division of SP
