Sugarcane Bagasse Tableware

Sugarcane bagasse tableware is a fiber-based, plastic-free food packaging solution manufactured from the residual pulp of sugarcane after juice extraction. This agricultural by-product is then converted into tableware with mechanical strength and thermal stability.

The use of bagasse allows the production of lightweight yet durable tableware designed for food service applications where hygiene, performance, sustainability, and resource efficiency are key considerations. It is widely used across Europe as a sustainable alternative to plastic disposable tableware, particularly in response to EU single-use plastic regulations.
