Bagasse is the dry fibrous residue left behind once sugarcane has been processed. This fibre can be pressed into shapes in a high-heat, high-pressure process. Vegware uses this pressed sugarcane fiber to make takeaway containers & tableware, making use of a by-product that would otherwise go to waste!

Benefits of Bagasse:

• Does not trap condensation, so hot food stays crispy for longer!
• Thinner than polystyrene, so takes up less valuable storage space
• Made from 100% reclaimed materials
• Sustainably sourced & renewable
• Commercially compostable with food waste

Vegware's Nourish™ moulded fibre products are made from reclaimed natural fibre such as sugarcane, bamboo or wood pulp. Once the material has been pressed for juice, a dry fibrous material remains. This waste product goes through a high-heat, high-pressure process that presses and shapes the material, turning it into our moulded fibre takeaway boxes, plates, cups and bowls.

The Nourish™ range of natural moulded fibre meets the latest UK and EU requirements and is certified for home and industrial composting.

Nourish™ moulded fibre can be recycled with paper and cardboard if it's clean and free of significant food contamination.
