| Attribute | Specification | Notes / Additional Info |
|---|---|---|
| Material composition | 100% sugarcane bagasse pulp (post-harvest fibrous residue). Optional compostable PLA or starch-based lining available. | Bagasse is an agricultural by-product from sugar extraction; unbleached pulp is commonly used. Lining choice affects compostability and hot-liquid performance. |
| Available capacities | - 4 oz (120 ml) • 8 oz (240 ml) • 12 oz (360 ml) • 16 oz (480 ml) | Common sizes for hot & cold beverages and soups. Custom sizes and shapes can be produced within standard molding tolerances. |
| Typical dimensions (example) | 8 oz: Height 80 mm • Top Ø 75 mm • Bottom Ø 52 mm • Wall thickness 0.8–1.2 mm | Dimensions vary by capacity; wall thickness affects heat retention and stiffness. |
| Average weight per unit | 4 oz ≈ 6 g • 8 oz ≈ 9 g • 12 oz ≈ 12 g • 16 oz ≈ 15 g (dry, no lid) | Weights are typical ranges for molded bagasse cups; coatings or heavier rims increase unit weight. |
| Lid compatibility | Compatible lid types: compostable PLA sip lid, molded pulp flat lid, hinged compostable lid. Lids sized to top diameters (snap-fit). | Selecting a matched lid is important for spill resistance and heat retention. Pulp lids are fully compostable and perform well with hot beverages. |
| Thermal performance | Safe for hot liquids up to ~90–95°C short-term. Recommended handling for hot drinks (70–85°C) without extended contact >2 hours. | Use of a sleeve or thicker-walled cup improves user comfort. PLA lining withstands similar temps but may soften if exposed to very high heat for long periods. |
| Leak & grease resistance | Naturally grease-resistant; liquid-tightness depends on lining. Unlined bagasse: good for short-term liquids. Lined cup: enhanced liquid barrier for longer hold times. | Coatings and linings trade off between barrier performance and home-compostability (PLA remains industrial- or home-compostable in many cases). |
| Compostability / End-of-life | Industrial composting: commonly biodegrades within 90–180 days. Home compost: 6–12 months depending on conditions. Suitable for industrial organic-waste streams. | Compostability times vary by facility and local conditions. PLA-lined items may require hotter industrial composting for full breakdown. |
| Common certifications & standards | Typical recognitions: EN 13432 (industrial compostability), ASTM D6400, BPI certification (where applicable), FDA food-contact compliance, ISO 14001 for environmental management at manufacturing sites. | Certification status depends on the specific product variant and verifying body; check batch documentation for confirmed certificates. |
| Manufacturing process | Molded pulp forming: pulp preparation → mold pressing → heat curing → trimming and optional lining application → inspection and packaging. | Process uses water and thermal energy; modern facilities often recirculate process water and optimize energy use to reduce environmental footprint. |
| Sustainability benefits | Uses agricultural residue (diverts bagasse from burning), reduces reliance on fossil-fuel plastics, often lower embodied fossil carbon compared to petroleum-based alternatives. | Actual environmental performance depends on supply chain, transportation, and end-of-life route (compost vs landfill vs incineration). |
| Typical use cases | Hot beverages (coffee, tea), cold drinks, soups, takeout portions, catering, events and cafes seeking compostable alternatives. | Best suited where organic-waste collection or industrial composting is available for correct disposal and maximum benefit. |
| Limitations & handling | Not recommended for prolonged oven use or direct flame. High-acid or long-term liquid storage may affect integrity depending on lining and dwell time. | Store in cool, dry conditions. Avoid prolonged immersion; inspect for defects before filling with hot liquids. |
| Quality & inspection | Standard checks include dimensional tolerance, leakage test, heat resistance, and visual defect inspection. Random sample lab testing for compostability and food-contact safety is common. | Third-party lab testing for migration and compostability can be requested to demonstrate compliance with buyer specifications. |
| Customization options | Size, rim style, wall thickness, embossing/branding (press-mark), compostable lid options, and color tinting using approved food-safe pigments. | Customization may affect certification scope; consult specification team when changing materials or adding non-standard coatings. |
| Recommended disposal | Prefer industrial composting or dedicated organic-waste collection. Home composting possible with longer breakdown times; avoid disposal in conventional recycling streams for paper. | If no composting is available, follow local waste guidance — sending to landfill reduces environmental benefits. |
