Stylish, eco-friendly and sustainable products made from sugar cane or bagasse are quickly emerging as an excellent eco-friendly option for a wide variety of food service locations. They can easily handle hot, cold or oily food to ensure customer satisfaction and have a simple yet elegant design that makes them perfect for use with any delicious dish. But how are these impressive and multi-functional products made?
Bagasse is a by-product of the stalks of sugarcane plants after harvesting. Bagasse mulch is formed after the juice has been removed from the sugar cane and is a product that would traditionally be thrown away and considered waste. This mulch is then heat pressed into the desired product shape using a high heat, high pressure process to make sugar cane products and disposable tableware.
These products help to reduce material waste after sugarcane harvesting. They are also fully compostable and take about 3-6 months to break down.
Able to withstand temperatures of up to 50 degrees Celsius, these products are also cut resistant to provide maximum durability and are more durable than paper, plastic or polystyrene products.
