Material and Manufacturing Process
Material: Sugarcane Bagasse
The material that is used to manufacture, compost plates is derived from sugarcane plants through sugar extraction techniques. They have a number of benefits such as being affordable, strong, and environment friendly which makes them a perfect substitute for plastic plates.
Production Process: Paper Pulp Molding
The renewable material derived from sugarcane is then molded into the plates using an efficient method known as paper pulp molding which has strong bagasse fibers making the plates durable and compostable making them ideal for thick moist food items.

How to Dispose & Compost (Operations Playbook)
Positioning: A practical end-of-life guide for compostable plates/bagasse plates that improves staff execution and reduces contamination, boosting diversion rates.
Industrial Composting (Preferred Where Available):
Front-of-house signage: “Compostables only—no plastics/films.”
Back-of-house consolidation: Use lined toters; avoid liquids pooling.
Contamination control: Remove non-compostable lids/films; food-soiled fiber is acceptable in most programs.
Hauler coordination: Confirm acceptance of biodegradable paper plates and pickup cadence; add SKUs to your approved materials list.
Home Compost (Program-Dependent):
Shred or cut plates to increase surface area; maintain moisture & aeration.
Expect longer timelines than industrial systems; performance varies by climate and pile management.
Keep out plastics, foil, and synthetic liners.
Recycling & Landfill Reality Check:
Not for paper recycling due to food contamination and wet-strength additives in many service scenarios.
If composting is unavailable, follow local landfill guidance—meanwhile engage haulers on pilot compost routes.
Quick Matrix (for Staff Training):
| Stream | Where It Works Best | Notes for Buyers & Ops |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial Composting | Venues, campuses, festivals, caterers | Verify program acceptance; label bins; train staff quarterly. |
| Home Compost | Households with established piles | Slower than industrial; shred plates; maintain moisture. |
| Recycling | Not recommended | Food-soiled fiber typically rejected by MRFs. |
| Landfill (Fallback) | Areas without compost access | Use as interim measure; continue supplier/hauler discussions. |
On-Pack/On-Site Claims (Best Practice):
“Compostable where accepted. Check local facilities. BPI/TÜV certification per SKU. Food-contact documentation available on request.”
