A range of plates and bowls from Vegware's bagasse tableware range. Made from the dry fibrous residue left once sugar cane has been pressed for juice. As with our takeaway boxes, these plates and bowls are pressed into shape in a high-heat, high-pressure process. Surprisingly the result is a plate that is stronger than a paper plate and happy with hot, wet or oily foods.
Vegware products are specifically designed to be safe and suitable for organic recycling. Any paper surface that comes into contact with food is made from sustainable forest virgin board. The bulk of our recycled products are not made from paper but bagasse fibre which is left over after sugar cane has been pressed. They use non-toxic vegetable, water-based inks or where necessary a UV-process which evaporates harmful chemicals.
