Frequently Asked Questions
If you can't find what you're looking for, write to us directly — we usually reply the same day.
Are these products really compostable?
Yes. Our cutlery range fully breaks down into nature within 90 days under industrial composting conditions, leaving no microplastics.
What's the minimum order quantity?
It starts at 5,000 units and moves in multiples of 5,000 — the product is made by the case, so half a case is not produced. The unit price does not change with quantity: 5,000 or 200,000, it is the same.
Can I match my print colour with a Pantone code?
Yes, just enter your code in the Pantone field in the calculator — our production team ensures an exact match.
What if I don't have a logo?
You can turn printing off and take the products plain — unprinted products ship from stock, going out the day after your order is confirmed. If you have a logo but no vector file, send what you have through the artwork request form.
How do I upload my own logo?
Use the 'Upload your logo' field above the calculator to upload a vector file (PDF, AI, or SVG) — our production team will show you the placement on the product before confirming your order.
Can I order a sample?
Yes, you can request a small sample set before placing a bulk order.
What's the difference between wood and bamboo?
Wood offers a denser texture and a heavier feel; bamboo is lighter and a faster-renewing resource. Both are compostable.
Why are bamboo and wood separate categories?
They're different raw materials with different lengths, textures, and pricing — we split them into separate categories so you can pick the right one without confusion.
Can I match my print colour with a Pantone code?
Yes, just enter your code in the Pantone field in the calculator — our production team ensures an exact match.
What if I don't have a logo?
You can turn printing off and take the products plain; unprinted products ship from stock and arrive faster.
Can I order a sample?
Yes, you can request a small sample set before placing a bulk order.
Does the bamboo straw go soft when wet?
No, the natural bamboo structure keeps its shape in liquid for a long time.
Are the straw and its wrap printed separately?
Yes — the straw itself gets pad printing, and if you choose individual wrapping, the wrap can carry its own separate print. Both can be customized with up to 4 colours.
Should I choose 15 cm or 20 cm?
15 cm suits cocktail glasses; 20 cm is better for tall glasses and pool bar drinks.
What happens if I don't choose individual wrapping?
Straws are packed in bulk and the unit cost is slightly lower. The minimum stays lower too: printing on the straw itself needs 3,000 units, while individual wrapping brings the sleeving line's own minimum and raises the order to 12,000 units.
Can I match my print colour with a Pantone code?
Yes, just enter your code in the Pantone field in the calculator.
How much do printed napkins cost?
We price napkins by quote, because the unit price is not a single figure: size, folding, paper, number of print colours and quantity decide it together. Some things you can see without asking — the minimum order is 48,000 units, the lead time is 7–9 days, and the plate charge falls once per colour. Finish your choices in the configurator and send them; we prepare the quote and email it to you.
What's the difference between waiter fold and square fold?
Waiter fold (1/8) is easier to carry by hand during service; square fold (1/4) sits wider and more impressive on the table.
Is there a price difference between kraft and white napkins?
Yes, white napkins cost slightly more due to the bleaching process compared to kraft.
What's the 33×24 narrow fold used for?
It's designed for bar service and napkin needs placed next to narrow glasses.
Does full-colour printing add cost?
Yes, but it significantly increases visibility on the table and brand impact.
Why is the minimum order 48,000 units?
Napkins are printed on a flexo line and the line cannot take a job below that quantity; setup, initial waste and cleaning are the same however much you print. For smaller needs an unprinted napkin is a good middle ground — it comes from stock, so no minimum applies.
Which size should I choose?
The most popular sizes are 5×14, 6×12, 7×12, 7.5×14, and 8×8 — if you're unsure, use the quick-pick buttons in the calculator.
Can I describe my own scent?
Yes, for orders of 100,000 units and above, the 'Custom Scent Description' field becomes active and you can describe the scent you want.
How does the paper family affect price?
Kraft is the most economical option; gloss and matte coated papers create a small price difference for a more premium feel.
Why choose a higher weight (gsm)?
A higher weight makes the wipe feel fuller in hand and more resistant to tearing.
What's the difference between gloss and matte varnish?
Gloss varnish makes the print vivid and shiny; matte varnish gives a more premium, non-reflective look.
Can I order fewer than 15,000 units?
The minimum order for wet wipe production is 15,000 units — for smaller needs, take a look at our other categories.
What can go inside the kit?
Bamboo or wooden fork, spoon and knife, a bamboo straw, a printed napkin, a wet wipe, sugar and salt. You pick the items one by one and the sleeve is sized to what you choose.
I want 10,000 kits, but the napkin minimum is 48,000. What happens?
The kit itself starts at 10,000, but a printed napkin and a wet wipe have their own production minimums. If your kit quantity is below them, the difference is still produced and shipped to you separately — you will see it as its own line in the order summary. Unprinted components have no such limit: they come from stock, so only the quantity the kit needs goes in.
Is the printing only on the sleeve?
No. The sleeve is printed as standard, and the napkin, the straw body and the cutlery handle inside can carry the same artwork. Using one design across four surfaces turns the whole kit into a single brand item.
When does the lead time start?
The 12–14 days start when you approve the artwork, not when you place the order. A delayed approval moves the delivery date by the same amount.
