Papstar paperless sugarcane plate "pure" round 160 mm compostable microwave-safe (model 89995)

Papstar paperless sugarcane plate "pure" round 160 mm is a single-use tableware item made from bagasse (sugarcane fiber). The 160 mm diameter plate is designed for serving snacks, starters and small portions at events, food trucks, outdoor dining and catering situations. The material is compostable and the product is suitable for reheating in a microwave for short periods, offering a biodegradable alternative to conventional disposable plates.

Advantages

The sugarcane fibre construction provides a firm, lightweight plate that resists bending when holding typical snack portions. Compostable material reduces landfill waste compared with petroleum-based disposables, and microwave suitability allows quick reheating of pre-cooked items. The neutral surface is suitable for both cold and warm foods and does not require additional coatings for many short-term uses.

Suitable for

• Serving snacks, finger food and starters at parties and events
• Food truck or takeaway portions where disposable service is required
• Outdoor dining or picnics where easy disposal and composting is preferred
• Short reheating of small portions in a microwave

When it may not be suitable

This plate is intended for single-use serving of small items and may not be suitable for heavy or very greasy meals that require prolonged holding. Although microwave-safe for short reheating, it is not designed for conventional oven use or prolonged exposure to high heat. For long-term reuse or heavy-duty catering service, a reusable or more rigid plate would be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Material: sugarcane fibre (bagasse), compostable
• Shape: round
• Diameter: 160 mm
• Use: single-use disposable tableware
• Temperature: suitable for short microwave reheating

How to use

Place food directly on the plate for serving cold or warm items. For reheating, use a microwave on low to medium power and heat in short intervals, checking food temperature between intervals to avoid overheating the plate. After use, dispose of the plate in a composting bin where local facilities accept industrially compostable paper-based items; if composting is not available, dispose of it according to local waste guidelines for biodegradable disposables.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended portion size and whether a 160 mm diameter plate is sufficient
• Local composting availability and disposal rules for compostable paper products
• Suitability for the specific food types (very oily or liquid meals may require a deeper or coated container)
• Volume needed for event or catering to ensure adequate supply

Usage recommendations

Use the plate for individually portioned snacks, cold starters or small warm dishes. When reheating, keep microwave times short and avoid direct exposure to open flame or very high temperatures. Empty and lightly scrape food residue before composting to meet local composting requirements.
