German’s Restaurant, New Market Street has replaced all Styrofoam take-away containers with more environmentally-friendly biodegradable containers.
A release from the restaurant said it has committed to contributing positively to the community and environment as a result of customer requests and also because of the observed devastating impacts of improperly disposed Styrofoam on the environment, citing blocked drains as an example.
The soup containers are made from 100% biodegradable, heavy duty poly-coated paperboard, designed to withstand a range of temperatures from freezing up to 190 degrees Fahrenheit.
The take-away food boxes are from the Eco Pak line of environmentally friendly products from Caribbean Container Inc.
