  More and more bagasse products, such as cups, plates, tableware, etc., are being marketed as sustainable, plastic-free and biodegradable products. When white bagasse cups are sold in biodegradable form, this is the same as claiming that paper cups are biodegradable in nature. Because paper cups are coated with PLA or PE plastic to hold drinks, they do not degrade in nature, almost like plastic cups. This will take longer than expected, leaving quite a lot of microplastics behind if they are to degrade in nature.

  Sustainability comparison between paper cups and white bagasse cups
  When comparing paper cups with white bagasse cups, consider whether they are biodegradable first. As we explained in previous sections, paper cups are coated with plastic, which does not degrade in nature. But if they are coated with PLA plastic, they are biodegradable in industrial compost. Bagasse cups are creamy and paper-like. They are heat - and leak-proof, and microwave - and refrigerator-friendly. Because they are made from only natural fibers, they contain no toxins. White bagasse cups are 100% biodegradable and compostable. They will be composted in a home compost heap or buried in the soil to decompose naturally. When white bagasse cups are advertised as sustainable and biodegradable, they empower consumers and businesses that want to support sustainable products to make the right decisions.

  White bagasse cups are a more eco-friendly option
  We know that forests around the world are threatened and endangered, so it is important for us to find alternative materials that do not require virgin forest resources. With white bagasse cups, you can still use high-performance disposable "paper" products, but be aware that you are choosing products made from rapidly renewable and recyclable sugar cane rather than trees. Best of all, at the end of its useful life, you can put containers or dishes into commercial compost instead of a landfill.
  Sugar cane is now a "recycled resource". We can break it down into pulp that can be used to make products originally made from tree fibers. This means fewer trees are needed to produce our products, and we recycle waste that would otherwise be burned or buried. When choosing between paper cups and bagasse cups, it is important to consider the use. If you would like to know about composting facilities for sugar cane or bagasse products, please let us know.
