Sugarcane Salad Bowl 900 ml: Sustainable Food Service Packaging
The LAPA 900 ml sugarcane salad bowl is the eco-friendly single-use container for professional food service. Made from 100% bagasse, the natural fibre that remains after sugarcane is pressed, it is biodegradable and compostable to EN 13432. It withstands temperatures up to 120 degrees C, is microwave- and freezer-safe (-20 degrees C), and is naturally grease- and liquid-resistant without any PFAS coating.
What Is Bagasse Tableware
Bagasse is the fibrous pulp left over after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract their juice. Once a waste material, it is now moulded under heat and pressure into sturdy, plastic-free tableware. The result is a renewable, tree-free fibre that decomposes in 90 to 180 days in industrial composting facilities, unlike plastic or polystyrene, which persist for centuries.
Why Switch from Plastic
The EU Single-Use Plastics directive (SUP 2019/904) bans expanded polystyrene food containers and many disposable plastics. Sugarcane bowls are a compliant, future-proof alternative that lets restaurants, caterers and delivery kitchens meet sustainability expectations without compromising on performance or presentation.
Technical Characteristics
This square bowl holds 900 ml and measures 195 x 170 x 55 mm in a natural havana colour. The rigid walls keep their shape under hot, cold and oily foods, so dishes travel safely during delivery and take-away. The surface resists grease and liquids and tolerates the microwave for quick reheating, while remaining freezer-safe for batch prep.
Professional Uses
Ideal for fresh salads, build-your-own poke bowls, warm soups and broths, pasta and rice dishes, desserts, and ready meals. The neutral natural finish enhances food presentation in delivery, take-away, buffet and catering service, giving every dish a clean, premium look.
Pairs Well With
Complete your eco take-away line by pairing this bowl with matching bagasse lids, compostable cutlery, kraft napkins and paper carrier bags. LAPA stocks a full range of plastic-free service items so you can standardise your packaging across the menu.
