Jun 10, 2022

Environmentally friendly and sustainable food packaging is the most important trend and direction at the moment, and many food and beverage companies have begun to use recyclable or biodegradable packaging materials. In addition to achieving the goal of protecting the environment, sustainable packaging also enhances the brand image, as consumers are increasingly concerned about whether the packaging of products is environmentally friendly. The use of bagasse tableware to make disposable environmentally friendly tableware can not only effectively reduce the use of plastic tableware, but also achieve the purpose of environmental protection.

The environmentally conscious public and the food service industry are increasingly turning to sugarcane bagasse tableware, which has many properties that make it ideal for food packaging, including outstanding water and oil resistance. It can be refrigerated, microwaved, or heated in the oven.

Plastic is durable, but it can take up to 400 years to degrade, causing a lot of pollution to the environment. Bagasse, on the other hand, biodegrades normally within 90 days. Bagasse or sugar cane is fully compostable and breaks down best in commercial composting facilities. Bagasse will compost in about 60 days under commercial composting conditions. Therefore, it is commonly used by distributors all over the world.

Sugarcane is a biotransformation efficient crop that can be harvested in single season, so bagasse is readily available. For every ton of sugarcane straw crushed, about 30 tons of bagasse can be obtained. Bagasse food packaging materials are in high demand from many food packaging industry customers and we are using the latest methods to manufacture these food utensils. The manufacturing process includes the following steps:
1. The fiber residues remaining after extracting the juice from the sugarcane stems are stored wet, and the short fibers with sugar residues are eliminated.
2. The bagasse is mixed with water until a pulpy texture is obtained. The wet pulp is converted into a dry pulp board after pressing in a beating tank
3. After the wet pulp is converted into dry pulp board, the substance is mixed with oil and water repellent in a pulper to make the substance stronger.
4. After mixing, pipe the mixture into the preparation tank and then into the molding machine. Process it under high pressure and heat, instantly pressing the mixture into the shape of bagasse plate, bagasse bowl or bagasse clamshell lunch box.
