Bagasse and Natural Fiber Eco-Friendly Materials

Bagasse is mostly made from the fibrous residues of sugarcane and sorghum; after they are crushed to extract their juice. Natural Fiber products are made from other agricultural waste, such as rice husks, straw, wood dust, bamboo powder,  etc.  In common, these are renewable resources that are being manufactured into pulp, paper products and building materials.

Bagasse paper products are excellent substitutes for tree-based paper products such as food containers, plates, product packaging, etc. They reduce deforestation and require less bleaching, less chemical treatment, thus leading healthier environment.

Natural Fiber products are made via high temperature compression and lead to a high density, waterproof and tree-free end product.  This hardy material can withstand microwaves, steam and both high and low temperatures.  Thus, it is the perfect replacement for disposable food containers and utensils. It can also be reused after a simple washing.

Both Bagasse and Natural Fiber products will decompose and are 100% biodegradable. So in their post-consumer lives, they can be used to create fertilizer or even provide fuel.
