47 2022-09-23
Is sugarcane bagasse eco-friendly?
Yes! Sugarcane bagasse is one of the most eco-friendly options available! Since it’s made from the plant fibers left behind from the processing of sugarcane, sorghum, or agave, it’s an excellent choice for anyone looking to make environmentally friendly choices. It’s also 100% biodegradable, breaking down completely within 90 days.

Can you put bagasse in the oven?
Bagasse can handle temperatures between -25°C to 220°C (-13°F to 428°F), so not only can it be used in the oven, but it’s safe to use in the freezer or microwave, too! That makes it a reliable choice for companies in the airline industry or travel industry that are looking for durable and versatile options, while still maintaining a commitment to environmental responsibility.
Is bagasse safe to eat from?
Yes! Bagasse is 100% food-safe, free from harmful chemicals, and BPA-free. It doesn’t leak colors or dyes either. Our sugarcane bagasse products comply with the FDA’s food safety standards and are water- and oil-resistant, in addition to being suitable for both hot and cold food. 
Can bagasse replace plastic?
Sugarcane bagasse is one of the best plastic alternatives. Not only is it safe, strong, and reliable, but it’s also recyclable and compostable. 
With Canada, China, and the European Union having implemented bans on single use plastic that come into effect very soon, finding ways to replace plastic is crucial for travel companies and other businesses. RMT Global Partners can help you make the right choice for your company and comply with single-use plastic bans. 
How do you dispose of bagasse dishware?
Bagasse products are made from sugarcane, so they can be disposed of in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner along with other organic waste.
