- We flag Coating degradation and durability over time and Allergic contact dermatitis from plant fiber or resin on the Pela and not on the Pela.
- The Pela is Plant-based bioplastic composite where the Pela is Flax fiber and plant-based resin blend, compostable, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
