What are the disadvantages of clamshell packaging?
Clamshell packaging is difficult to recycle and can be complicated, depending on the type of material used. If it’s made of plastic, then it’s harder to recycle and doesn’t biodegrade.
However, if clamshell packaging is made of cardboard or compostable packaging, it’s easier to recycle or compost.
Is clamshell packaging sustainable?

How do you preserve clamshells?
Rub mineral oil over each shell to give it a deep gleam.
Allow the shells to dry for at least one full day and then rub oil on the shell. Mineral oil not only restores the shine of the shell, but helps to preserve the shell.
