Lucas Clarke – Takeaway & Packaging Expert View Profile →
- Our Take: Impressively sturdy and holds heat well, performing like a top-tier plastic alternative.
- Heads-up: Proper disposal requires access to commercial composting, not suitable for home compost heaps.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'Nourish & Go', a busy lunchtime spot in Leeds, wanted to eliminate their single-use plastic bowls to better align with their healthy, sustainable brand ethos.
"Our customers have actively commented on the switch. They love that the bowls are plant-based. They're incredibly sturdy, even with our hot bone broths, and they look far more premium than our old plastic tubs. There's been no looking back."
Samuel Jones – Co-Founder
The move successfully displaced over 800 plastic containers per week from their waste stream, significantly boosting their local green credentials.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting Ready to Serve
- Store packs in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight.
- Keep the bowls in their protective plastic sleeve until you're ready to use them.
- Separate bowls gently from the stack to avoid any tears before filling.
- Make sure you've ordered the matching Fiesta bagasse lids (HW027) for takeaway orders.
Storage and Correct Disposal
- These bowls are for commercial composting only, not home compost or recycling bins.
- If you have seating, use clear signage to guide customers to the correct food waste bin.
- Check with your local council or waste contractor about commercial composting collections in your area.
- Used bowls can be stored with other food waste before collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I put these bowls in the microwave?
A: Yes, they are perfectly safe for microwave use, making them great for reheating meals quickly and safely.
Q: Are they strong enough for heavy or wet foods like curry?
A: Absolutely. They are specifically designed to handle hot, wet, and oily foods without leaking, weakening, or becoming soggy.
Q: What exactly is bagasse?
A: It's a natural fibre made from the waste pulp of sugarcane stalks after the juice has been extracted for sugar production. It's a reclaimed, renewable resource.

A: Yes, they are freezer-safe, which makes them a versatile option for businesses that do meal prep or sell frozen portions.

Ever wondered what happens to sugarcane after it's been squeezed for its juice? Usually, the leftover fibrous pulp – called bagasse – would be discarded. Instead of letting it go to waste, it's collected, pulped with water, and then high-pressure moulded into these brilliant bowls. Think of it like super-strong, food-safe papier-mâché made from a natural, renewable plant fibre. This clever process is what gives the eco-friendly takeaway bowls 900ml their surprising strength, heat resistance, and greaseproof qualities. Unlike plastic, which traps steam and makes food soggy, bagasse is breathable, allowing just enough moisture to escape to keep food fresh. It's a fantastic piece of food tech, turning agricultural waste into a genuinely superior product for your business.
