Sturdy plastic cutlery in two materials

Find everyday and distinctive plastic cutlery for any occasion at Quill. Most plasticware is made of either polypropylene or polystyrene. Both plastics are disposable, and they are recyclable in specific locales. Polypropylene offers more flexibility, so you can bend or twist utensils quite a bit before they break. Polystyrene offers greater rigidity but more strength, standing up to the toughest foods. It’s a good idea to keep both handy. All disposable cutlery comes in different grades of material consistency and offer either a medium-weight or heavyweight composition.

Disposable cutlery for different applications

The utensils available come in separate boxes of spoons, knives, and forks, or combined as utensil sets. Some sets come wrapped in pouches that may also include a paper napkin, along with salt and pepper packets. Everyday utensils are available in white, black, and clear, with functional, straightforward designs. They offer ease of use and great value, and complement other breakroom supplies such as coffee, water, and snacks. Many come in carton sizes of 500 to 1,000 pieces, or in retail box sizes of 24 to 48 pieces.

There are cutlery pieces available for special occasions, including birthdays, company picnics, and seasonal gatherings. Find them in a wide variety of colors, from red to purple, and shades in between. Some designer tints are also available, from lavender to kiwi to robin’s egg and sunshine. Opaque cutlery with embedded red, gold, and silver glitter top the designer chart. Many are available in party packs of 150 to 360 pieces.

Utensils for elegant occasions like client luncheons have distinctive textured, contoured handles, or they’re offered in caterer-style, pre-rolled, tied cutlery sets with soft, absorbent, and embossed kraft dinner napkins. Many of these are available in full-length dinnerware pieces up to 9.5 inches long.
