3 Compartment Bagasse Meal Box 8" x 8" 150 Pack
Built for portion-separated set-meal service
The 8" x 8" footprint with three internal divisions is the format curry houses, Indian takeaways and school caterers reach for when plating rice, curry and a vegetable side on a single tray without sauce migration between zones. Meal-prep brands use the same layout for portion-controlled set meals; carvery-style operators use it for main-plus-two-sides service. The three-compartment layout is what makes this SKU distinct from the single-compartment 9x6" bagasse clamshell and 9x9" bagasse meal box — sauce migration is the operational problem three-compartment boxes solve.
Specifications
- External dimensions: 8" x 8" (approx. 203 x 203 mm)
- Compartments: 3 (raised internal dividers)
- Material: Bagasse fibre (sugarcane pulp)
- Suitable for: Hot and cold foods
- Pack quantity: 150 boxes per pack
- Compostable: Home and industrial compostable — certified to EN 13432 (industrial) and OK Compost Home, breaking down within 60–90 days
- Storage: Cool, dry, away from direct sunlight
Frequently asked questions
Will the three compartments stop curry sauce migrating into the rice?
The raised internal dividers keep wet and dry items in separate zones during normal takeaway handling, which is why the format is widely used for rice-and-curry sets, thali service and portion-controlled meal-prep.
Is the 8x8 footprint suitable for a full thali or set-meal portion?
Yes — the 8" x 8" footprint with three zones sits at the standard set-meal size for thali service (rice + main + side) and portion-controlled meal-prep. Larger single-portion mains without compartment separation fit the 9x9" single-compartment meal box (see sibling link above) instead.
What eco-credentials does the 3-compartment box carry?
Bagasse fibre (sugarcane pulp), certified home and industrial compostable to EN 13432 and OK Compost Home — breaks down within 60–90 days. Sits inside the wider eco-friendly packaging range for operators replacing single-use plastic meal-prep containers.
