Product details
16oz bagasse round bowls supplied in a pack of 125. Made from natural sugarcane fibre — also known as bagasse — these bowls are a stronger, compostable plant-fibre alternative to basic paper or plastic bowls. Suitable for hot and cold food, they are a practical step up from thin paper bowls for soups, salads, cereals, snacks, buffets and events.
At 16oz capacity, these bowls are a generous portion size — suitable for a full soup serving, a salad bowl, a cereal portion or a substantial snack. The moulded sugarcane fibre construction gives them more rigidity than standard paper bowls, making them better suited to heavier or wetter food. For very oily dishes, check suitability and avoid long holding times.
What is Bagasse?
Bagasse is a plant fibre made from sugarcane residue. Instead of going to waste, the fibre is pressed into moulded food packaging such as plates, bowls and meal boxes. It creates a strong, lightweight and disposable material that is commonly used as an alternative to plastic or basic paper tableware.
