Wholesale Bagasse Plates for UK Events and Catering

9-inch, 10-inch and compartment formats in stock

The bagasse plates range covers the formats UK event caterers, festival operators and street-food traders reach for fastest — 9-inch round bagasse plates for side dishes, dessert service and kids' meals; 10-inch round bagasse plates for standard main-meal plating; and 3-compartment bagasse plates for meal-deal formats that keep mains, sides and sauces separated on a single plate. Both square and round geometries are stocked depending on presentation preference. Stack height is calibrated for fast-paced prep-line picking with no warp under normal service-temperature loading.

Bagasse plates — sugarcane-fibre and home-compostable

Every bagasse plates specification is food-contact safe under UK and EU Regulation 1935/2004. Bagasse is the fibre residue left after sugarcane processing — a renewable agricultural by-product that would otherwise be burned as waste. The material is home-and-industrial compostable in 60–90 days under standard composting conditions and meets EN 13432 standards. PFAS-free across the bagasse plates range — no fluorinated grease-resistant coatings, so the plates safely return to soil at end of life. Certification documents accompany trade-account orders and are available on request for HACCP and event-licence audits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the minimum order on bagasse plates?

There is no minimum order on the bagasse plates range — buy a single case or order by the pallet. The same trade pricing applies in either case, with no small-order surcharge. Volume tiers add discount on pallet quantities; full pricing breakpoints are visible after registering a trade account.

Are bagasse plates microwave and oven safe?

Bagasse plates are microwave-safe up to standard reheat temperatures and oven-safe to approximately 200°C for short durations. They handle hot, oily and saucy foods without flexing — unlike paperboard plates, which can soften with hot moisture. They are freezer-safe down to standard frozen-food temperatures.

How do bagasse plates compare to paper or polystyrene plates?

Bagasse plates are made from sugarcane-fibre by-product and are home-and-industrial compostable in 60–90 days. Paper plates may be coated with grease-resistant chemistry that prevents composting. Polystyrene plates aren't compostable or widely recyclable. For eco-conscious events and licensed festival operators, bagasse is the standard go-to.

How fast do orders ship?

Orders placed before 1pm dispatch the same working day from Newcastle. Free local delivery applies on trade orders over £99 within the Newcastle delivery zone; UK-wide orders ship on a paid next-day courier service charged at checkout.
