The Range numbers are just a handy way to match lids to bases. All bagasse bases & lids are assigned to either the V3, V4 or V5 Range. Matching Range numbers = matching products.

e.g. all V3 Range lids match all V3 Range bases.

To introduce a fool-proof universal lid system in your kitchen, choose all bases from the same range.

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.

PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a compostable bioplastic made from plants - primarily corn - not fossil fuels.

Manufacturing bioplastics such as PLA produces significantly less carbon than conventional plastics such as PS or PET, and all Vegware PLA products are commercially compostable where accepted. 

Clear PLA varieties are suitable for cold use only, however CPLA (Crystallised PLA) is suitable for both hot and cold.

All Vegware products are commercially compostable - this means they will break down entirely in under 12 weeks in an industrial composting facility. If organics / industrial compost collections are available this means your Vegware cup, lid, plate, fork & napkin can all be disposed of alongside your leftover chips.

Vegware's disposable catering supplies are all designed with same day / immediate foodservice in mind, not for long-term use. So we can't really say how our products perform in the freezer or microwave, as they haven't been designed or tested for it.

If you intend to use any Vegware products outside of the intended purpose, we always recommend requesting samples and testing their suitability for yourself. The samples are free - just let us know what you're after.

Any clear PLA items are not microwave safe.

Certainly! Contact us today to ask about pallet pricing.
