Product overview of Square Bagasse Plates 15cm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lumapack Square Bagasse Plates 15cm are compact, rigid disposable plates made from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), designed for professional foodservice use across catering, events, and food-to-go operations. With a 150mm × 150mm footprint and a 15mm profile, these plates provide a clean, square format suited to small servings, appetisers, desserts, and side dishes where a presentable open-top plate is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe square format offers a contemporary presentation alternative to traditional round plates, making it a practical choice for caterers, cafés, and event operators seeking a consistent and modern plating aesthetic. The bagasse construction provides natural grease resistance and holds its shape under a full small-portion serving without flexing, making it suitable for both hot and cold food applications. The plates are also microwavable and freezer safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese plates are manufactured from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), a renewable plant-based material produced as a by-product of sugarcane processing. They contain no PE lining, no PFAS-added coatings, and no BPA, and are suitable for direct food contact under UK market requirements. As an industrially compostable product, they offer a lower-impact alternative to conventional plastic or coated paper plates for operators looking to reduce their packaging footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach case contains 500 plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- Section 2 --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e2.
