Method. Compostable unit pricing reflects Wanhui MOQ 50,000+ tier ($0.08–$0.15 bagasse, $0.15–$0.25 PLA-lined). Plastic pricing reflects pre-ban EPS wholesale ($0.04–$0.08). Penalty estimates reflect verified state-level compliance frameworks (CA SB-54, Maine LD 1503, EU SUP 2019/904) and industry-typical waste hauling and brand premium ranges. Numbers are directional — actual TCO depends on your contract structure and waste-stream provider. Sources: CalRecycle, FDA Market Phase-Out, BCLP state PFAS tracker, UNEP 2022 Food Packaging Report.
