The Benefits of Using Sugarcane Bagasse Plates & Bowls Everyday

Let's admit it. When it comes to meal prep, the most exhausting task is doing the dishes. And, if you are always busy, it should be the last thing on your mind. This is why switching to disposable plates can be a good choice.

But, we aren't just talking about any disposable plates. Unlike single-use plastic or paper plates, our collection of plates is made straight from plants. That said, our compostable plates are made from plant waste like bagasse.

And, if you're wondering why you should be making the switch to compostable bagasse plate, here are some reasons why-

Bagasse Plates & Environmental Impact

This one simply had to be the top one on our list. Bagasse plates and bowls are made from upcycled sugarcane bagasse. In short, bagasse is a plant waste that is left behind once juice is extracted from sugarcane stalks. This agro-waste is either dumped in landfills or burnt to get rid of. However, we believe in a circular economy. This is why we upcycle this very plant waste and carve it into highly functional and eco-friendly plates and bowls.

Our collection of bagasse bowls and plates is made from just plants. On the contrary, single-use plastic plates are made straight from non-renewable resources like petroleum. Apart from having a highly resource-intensive manufacturing process, these plates are also pretty hard to get rid of.

That said, disposable plastic plates always end up in landfills or oceans, where they stick around for a very long time. These plates take decades or even centuries to break down. So, while they are just floating around, these plates are often ingested by animals which leads to choking and even death. And, once they start breaking down, these plates leave a long trail of toxins and microplastics behind.

Our bagasse skates and bowls, on the other hand, are just made from plants. These eco-friendly bowls and plates are USDA-certified for being plant-based. But, there's more.

These bagasse plates are also certified compostable. That said, unlike single-use plastic plates that stick around for almost forever, these plates are here for a short time. Since they are certified compostable, they break down into compost after 90-180 days after disposal and leave behind nutrient-rich compost. The compost left can be added to the soil as manure.

Bagasse Disposable Plates & Every Day Use

These biodegradable plates are more than just sustainability claims. While the plates are made from just plants and come with a back-to-nature promise, these plates are also pretty functional. Heat resistant and non-toxic, these compostable plates are perfect for stacking all kinds of juicy or pipping hot meals without worrying about them buckling under pressure.

Plus, they are also ultra-sturdy and super strong. In short, while single-use plastic plates get flimsy, saggy, or mushy under all that weight, our bagasse plates and bowl maintain their shape every time. Plus, the plates come with no nasties. Because the plates are plant-based and certified compostable, they don't have any toxins trying to contaminate your food. That said, our eco-friendly plates are safe for your food as well. You can also use them in the microwave, freezer, refrigerator, or oven, given their non-toxic nature.

Apart from a strong and non-toxic build, these plates come in a variety of shapes and sizes. And, since they are functional, you get that guilt-free feeling after disposing of them.
