Product Overview
Stepping up your eco-friendly game has never been easier. We're looking at a fantastic, green alternative to traditional plastic lids, specifically designed for busy cafés, food trucks, and takeaway spots. These are the Fiesta Commercial Compostable Coffee Cup Lids, crafted from a clever material called bagasse – which is essentially recycled sugarcane pulp. They're built to fit your standard 12oz (340ml) cups, giving you a reliable, sustainable option for serving hot drinks.
These lids are aimed squarely at any business that wants to show its customers it cares about the planet without compromising on quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these compostable bagasse lids for coffee cups suitable for both hot and cold drinks?
A: They are designed primarily for hot drinks like coffee, tea, and soup, as their main job is to retain heat. While they can be used for cold drinks, a dedicated cold cup lid might be a better fit.
Q: What exactly is bagasse?
A: Bagasse is the dry, fibrous pulp that's left over after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract their juice. It's a brilliant, renewable resource for making eco-friendly packaging.
Q: Will these lids fit any 12oz cup I buy?
A: They are made to fit most standard 12oz (340ml) cups that have a 90mm rim diameter. It's always best to check compatibility with your specific brand of cups.
Q: Can I put these in my normal recycling bin at my business?
A: No, these are not for standard recycling. They must be disposed of in a commercial composting or dedicated food waste bin to break down correctly.
Q: Are they safe to put in the microwave?
A: We do not recommend putting bagasse lids in the microwave.
Q: Do the bagasse coffee cup lids 340ml affect the taste of the coffee?
A: Not at all. High-quality bagasse is completely flavour-neutral, so your drinks will taste exactly as they should.
Q: What does the BS EN 13432 certification mean?
A: It's the official European standard that verifies a product is 'industrially compostable'. It guarantees the item will break down into organic matter within 12 weeks in a commercial composting facility.
Q: How should I store them to keep them in good condition?
A: Simply keep the boxes in a cool, dry area, away from direct sunlight or damp, to ensure they maintain their shape and quality.
