Bagasse refers to the pulpy and fibrous residue that remains after extracting a product, such as juice, from a plant.
Sugarcane bagasse is a waste material produced during the process of extracting juice from sugarcane.
Bagasse finds various applications, such as being used as a fuel for generating heat and electricity, animal feed for cattle, and in the production of sustainable packaging.
Bagasse is considered one of the most environmentally friendly packaging materials. It is derived from renewable plant sources and can be easily disposed of. Our sugarcane bagasse products are certified to EN13432, ensuring that they completely break down within 90 days in a commercial, industrial compost facility.
There are several reasons why businesses, especially those in the food service sector, prefer using bagasse packaging over traditional alternatives like plastic.
