Moving away from standard plastic packaging doesn't mean giving up durability, and this range of sugarcane bagasse containers, PLA coated paper cups and boxes, and paper-based bowls and trays proves it. It covers bowls, clamshells, rectangular and square containers, plates and cups, suited to cafes, restaurants, caterers and food trucks looking to reduce single-use plastic in their operations. Sugarcane packaging in particular suits hot food service, holding up well to oils, sauces and steam without the container losing its shape. Have a look through the sugarcane packaging and eco-friendly takeaway packaging ranges to find compostable options across your full menu.
How compostable packaging performs depends on the material and how it's disposed of, so it's worth checking what commercial or industrial composting facilities are available in your area before promoting compostability to customers. Sugarcane containers offer strength and heat resistance suited to hot mains, while PLA coated cups and boxes give a compostable option for cold or short-hold items where standard plastic coatings would otherwise be used. Many businesses treat compostable packaging as part of a broader sustainability push, alongside recyclable plastic or paper options for items where compostability isn't practical or necessary. Buying in bulk helps manage costs while switching away from conventional plastic packaging, and pairing containers with compostable cutlery or compostable trash bags keeps the whole order consistent.
