Certified Sustainable & Compostable

maaterra plates are made from naturally fallen palm leaves and are 100% compostable and certified by both the Compost Manufacturing Alliance and USDA BioPreferred Program. They break down in 3–6 months in commercial composting facilities and approximately 12 months in home composters.

As a proud partner of 1% for the Planet and We Are Neutral, we're committed to creating beautiful tableware that doesn't compromise sustainability or design.

Defined as style, function, and sustainability

maaterra is for those times when you want to show that you're confident in your taste, care about the environment, and want others to be aware and care too.

Our process, from collection through manufacturing to compostability, has a minimal environmental impact. Made from fallen palm leaves which are cleaned with water and light, molded with heat, and etched, our plates are simply a leaf. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Are maaterra plates compostable?

Yes. maaterra plates have been certified “composter approved” by the Compost Manufacturing Alliance, a leader in creating the most practical model for advancing the use of compostables and their acceptance into industrial compost facilities.

What does it mean when you say each plate is “unique”?

We see perfection in the uniqueness of each plate. Unlike other disposable plates which go through a process of breaking down the materials and manipulating them with dyes, glues, and finishes in order to form the plates, we opt for the purest, most sustainable processing. While we go through a rigorous process of choosing the cleanest, most consistently colored, minimally marked leaves, we also embrace the idea that no two leaves are created identical.

We see beauty in the uniqueness of each plates marking. Speckling, striping, and changes in texture may appear on a plate. We call the effect, “perfectly imperfect”.

How do you make your plates?

We harm no trees during our process because we harvest fallen leaves. We clean the leaves with water and UV light. We mold them with heat and pressure. We etch them instead of adding inks. And since they are 100% compostable, when you leave your table, you also leave no trace. maaterra plates are simply a leaf.

Dinner party made effortless

I recently hosted a pre-Thanksgiving dinner — roast turkey, creamy sides, the works — and used the Thankful plates in the 12-inch size. The natural material added warmth, the design matched the season, and best of all: no piles of dishes afterward. A smart move for anyone who entertains often.

Playful and perfect for holiday gatherings with kids

Our Christmas Eve dinner included lots of little ones, and the High Five plates were a huge hit. Fun design, durable, and the 6-inch size was great for cookies and desserts.

Large gathering? These plates have you covered.

For our annual winter friends-and-family party, we went with the Ornament plates which people loved. The palm leaf material held up well even with heavy buffet items. If you want style + function for holiday entertaining, these are a top pick.

Rustic-chic

Our lodge-style home in Vermont called for something different for the big Christmas celebration. These palm-leaf plates fit our rustic décor perfectly. Guests were impressed with how solid they felt. Love that they’re compostable too. A bit on the expensive side but my husband and I strive for low-waste.

Hosting made easy for New Year’s gathering

We invited friends over for a New Year’s brunch and opted for the winter seasonal design. The palm-leaf material felt sturdy yet refined. The 10-inch plates worked really well for our buffet items and the little 6-inch ones were perfect for desserts and sides. And the compostability part was a win for our eco-conscious crowd.

Perfect for our New Year’s buffet

For our New Year’s brunch buffet, I used the 10-inch size winter seasonal plates for mains and the 6-inch for brunch sweets. Cleanup was quick with the compostable plates — everyone left happy, and the task of washing up didn’t loom since we were all tired and looking forward to watching some football.

Sustainable party plates that don’t feel disposable

I expected single-use plates to feel cheap, but these didn’t. The palm leaf is actually gorgeous — each plate has its own unique texture. We used the 10-inch size at a holiday family gathering (my niece’s first Christmas!) and the plates elevated the meal. Super happy we chose maaterra.
