Plastics are the mixtures of organic polymers that contribute significantly to global environmental pollution. As a result of increased environmental concerns, development of biodegradable silverware from starch, guar gum, cellulose, psyllium and agar etc sources with various formulations is one of the strategies to decrease the waste generated by usage of plastics, single-use plastic packaging and utensils, particularly disposable plastics which are developed from synthetic polymers such as polyethylene, polyester, Teflon, and epoxy, etc. Biodegradable cutleries will be developed through several unit operations such as Waste collection, Composting, Raw materials, Pretreatment, Compression moulding, Coating (optional), Food Companies, retails, Consumers. Biodegradable cutleries can be coat with different materials Beeswax, chitosan, Glycerol etc which can improve higher most the acceptability with good appearance and handling properties compared to the existing single use plastics. This review paper aims to present a thorough about the biodegradable cutlery and tableware materials and its development, production processes, characteristics, uses and environmental impacts which has potential to replace traditional waste products for our daily needs.
