Disposable cutlery is the kind of eating utensils that is generally used once and then discarded. It comes in different sizes, shapes, and materials–mostly wood and plastic. Disposable cutlery includes spoons, forks and knives and is produced lightweight for easy handling both by households and commercial users.

The most concerning issue, today, across the globe is environmental deterioration, which is aggravated by industrial manufacturers, as these industries use low-quality plastics for processing. The usage of low-quality plastic for manufacturing cutlery can have a negative impact on the environment by increasing the carbon footprint. The use of wood for manufacturing disposable cutlery with good build quality is the solution to the aforementioned problem. The use of wood will help to preserve nature and will reduce the carbon footprint. Manufacturers are developing innovative technologies to use wood for the production of disposable cutlery.

Plastic pollution has emerged as one of the most important environmental challenges since the world's ability to cope with it has been overwhelmed by the fast-rising manufacturing of throwaway plastic items. Plastic pollution is especially noticeable in impoverished Asian and African countries, where rubbish collection systems are sometimes ineffective or non-existent. However, the developed world, particularly in countries with low recycling rates, has difficulty in properly collecting discarded plastics. Plastic waste has grown so pervasive that efforts have been made by the United Nations to draught a global convention. Sewage plays a crucial role in the spread of microplastics. The surfaces of microscopic plastic pieces may harbour disease-causing organisms and function as a vector for illnesses in the environment. Plastic particles can also interact with soil organisms, influencing their health as well as soil functions.
