Product Overview
Thinking about giving your takeaway service a bit of an eco-friendly makeover? Meet the Fiesta HW628, a pack of 100 compostable oval food containers designed for the modern food business. Made from bagasse, a clever recycled sugarcane material, these containers are a brilliant, green alternative to those old-school polystyrene boxes. They’re sturdy, look the business, and show your customers you care about quality and the planet.
These are tailor-made for any spot serving meals with multiple components. Think bustling takeaway kitchens, street food stalls, event caterers, and even cafes offering daily lunch specials.

- Lids are Extra: Just remember to order the matching PET lids (HW630) separately.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Plymouth Kitchen", a popular takeaway spot in Devon, was looking to improve their delivery service. Their old plastic containers often led to food mixing in transit and customers complaining about presentation, especially with their signature fish and chips with mushy peas.
"We switched to these bagasse containers and the feedback was instant. The food arrives looking exactly how we plated it. The two compartments are perfect for keeping wet and dry items separate, and our customers love that we've moved to sustainable packaging. It has definitely enhanced our reputation locally."
Simon Wallace – Owner
The business reported a significant drop in negative delivery-related feedback and saw a noticeable increase in positive online reviews mentioning the high-quality packaging.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Using & Storing
- Store the container sleeves in a cool, dry place to maintain their rigidity.
- When filling, avoid over-packing to ensure the separate lids (HW630) fit securely.
- The containers are stackable when filled, but handle with care to maintain presentation.
- Perfect for hot food, but allow exceptionally hot liquids like soup to cool slightly before lidding.
Disposal & Best Practice
- These containers are certified for commercial composting (EN 13432), not home compost bins.
- Check with your local authority or waste contractor for access to industrial composting facilities.
- Inform your customers on your menu or packaging that the container is compostable.
- Remember the compatible PET lids are recyclable, so should be disposed of separately in plastic recycling.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these containers suitable for the microwave?
A: Yes, bagasse packaging is generally safe for reheating food in the microwave for short periods.
Q: Can I put these containers in the freezer?
A: Absolutely. They hold up well to freezing, making them suitable for pre-prepared meal services.
Q: What does 'commercially compostable' actually mean?
A: It means the container needs to go to an industrial composting facility with the right heat and conditions to break down. It's not suitable for a home compost heap.
Q: Are the matching lids (HW630) also compostable?
A: No, the compatible lids are made from clear PET plastic, which is not compostable but is widely recycled across the UK.
Q: What is bagasse made from?
A: It’s a natural fibre by-product from sugarcane processing. It’s an excellent recycled material that’s both strong and sustainable.
Q: Do these containers add any taste to the food?
A: Not at all. Bagasse is completely food-safe and neutral, so it won't alter the flavour of your dishes.
Q: How do they compare to standard polystyrene foam boxes?
A: They are far more rigid and less brittle than polystyrene, meaning they're less likely to crack. Plus, they offer superior breathability for hot food.
Q: Can I use them for dishes with a lot of sauce?
A: Yes, the material is soak-proof and handles wet foods very well. Just be sure to use a secure lid to prevent spills during transport.

Explore more from Fiesta CompostableWhy Bagasse Beats Polystyrene: No More 'Sweaty' Food
Ever wondered what 'bagasse' actually is? It's the fibrous pulp left over after juice is extracted from sugarcane. Instead of being thrown away, it’s pressed into shape to create super-strong, eco-friendly packaging. The real magic, though, is in its breathability. Think of it like the difference between wearing a plastic raincoat versus a modern breathable jacket on a walk. Polystyrene traps all the steam from hot food, creating condensation that turns your crispy chips or pakoras into a soggy mess. Bagasse, on the other hand, allows just enough of that steam to escape. This means your food arrives at your customer's door just as fresh, crisp, and delicious as it was when it left your kitchen. It’s a simple bit of science that makes a huge difference to food quality and customer satisfaction.
