Ekoroll Bagasse Food Containers are compostable sugarcane packaging solutions designed for takeaway, food delivery and horeca operations seeking a scalable, plastic-free alternative to conventional food packaging. Made from sugarcane fiber, a natural byproduct of sugar production, these containers offer the performance of conventional food packaging without the environmental cost.
As EU packaging regulations continue to restrict single-use plastics and foam, bagasse food containers have become the preferred choice for distributors, food service brands and horeca operators building sustainable packaging programs.
For a complete plastic-free packaging system, combine bagasse containers with our lid-free hot paper cups, molded fiber lids and lid-free cold paper cups.
What Are Bagasse Food Containers?
Bagasse food containers are single-use packaging products made from compressed sugarcane fiber. After sugarcane is processed for sugar, the remaining fibrous pulp is dried, molded and formed into durable food containers. The result is a packaging solution that is fully compostable, petroleum-free and plastic-free.
Compared to plastic, foam and conventional paper containers, bagasse packaging offers better heat resistance, structural durability and a significantly lower environmental footprint. It is rapidly becoming the standard for takeaway and delivery operations transitioning to sustainable packaging.

Bagasse vs Plastic and Foam
For businesses evaluating sustainable packaging alternatives, bagasse consistently outperforms conventional materials on both environmental and regulatory criteria.
- Bagasse: compostable, renewable, food-safe, EU-compliant and petroleum-free
- Plastic: non-compostable, petroleum-based, subject to increasing EU restrictions and bans
- Foam (EPS): non-recyclable, banned or restricted in many European markets, high environmental impact
