Durability and strength
ASTRA SIGNATURE cutlery comes in a range of weights, including medium weight, medium-heavy weight, and heavy weight. Forks, knives, and spoons are available in each weight. The heavier the weight, the more durable the product.
· Medium weight cutlery is best for soft foods that do not require much effort to pierce or cut through. Medium weight cutlery is often more economical and is an easy way to save on cost.
· Medium-heavy weight cutlery offers a mid-grade strength. Medium-heavy weight items offer a compromise between cost savings and durability.
· Heavy weight cutlery is the most durable, and is the best option for tougher foods. It can handle foods that medium weight cutlery does not. This is the best option for most meats or heavier foods.

Material Options
Disposable cutlery is typically produced from polypropylene or polystyrene.
ASTRA SIGNATURE provides both types for their cutlery. Their polypropylene cutlery comes in medium, medium-heavy, and heavy weights, while the polystyrene cutlery is offered in medium-heavy and heavy weights.
The material used for each utensil or kit is specified in the bullet points above. Both polypropylene and polystyrene are thermoplastic polymers. They can be dyed in various colors and are commonly referred to as "plastic" by consumers.
Polystyrene tends to be more brittle compared to polypropylene. The tines on forks and the blades on knives made from polystyrene are sharper and more pointed than those made from polypropylene.
Polypropylene, on the other hand, is flexible and does not break easily. It has a softer, less fragile feel compared to polystyrene.
