- By-product, not crop — sourced from existing sugar processing.
- Moulded under heat and pressure — pulp to finished form.
- Built for foodservice — takeaway, catering, and retail formats.

What Is Sugarcane Bagasse Packaging?
Sugarcane bagasse packaging is manufactured from the fibrous residue left after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract juice. This agricultural by-product is transformed into durable, compostable moulded fibre packaging — plates, trays, bowls, clamshells, and containers — that perform on par with conventional plastic or expanded polystyrene packaging, without the environmental burden.
Bagasse-based packaging is certified home and commercially compostable, food-safe, grease-resistant, and microwave-safe. It has become the preferred sustainable packaging format for foodservice operators, catering companies, airlines, retail deli counters, and hospitality groups across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Europe, and beyond.

Our bagasse packaging range includes round and rectangular plates in standard and deep configurations, compartment trays for airline and institutional catering, hinged-lid clamshells for takeaway and deli applications, bowls in multiple sizes for soup, salad and hot food, and custom formats for private label and retail-ready programmes.

What Is Sugarcane Bagasse Packaging?
Sugarcane bagasse packaging is made from the fibrous pulp that remains after juice extraction in sugarcane processing. This agricultural by-product is moulded under heat and pressure into containers, trays, bowls, plates and clamshell boxes. The result is a rigid, food-safe, compostable packaging format that performs comparably to conventional plastic and styrofoam containers — without the environmental cost.
Sugarcane bagasse packaging is certified compostable to EN 13432 and ASTM D6400 standards, accepted by most industrial composting programmes globally, and increasingly specified by hospitality, airline and retail buyers as part of formal sustainability commitments.
