Sugar is produced from sugarcane, which is cultivated in over 70 countries around the world, resulting in a large amount of bagasse. This bagasse is what we call "bagasse."
Bagasse tableware has three features: ● It is made from a fibrous material that is lightweight yet resistant to deformation. ● It has high water and oil resistance. ● Being plant-based, it has good breathability, preventing food from becoming soggy. Paper made from food fibers other than softwood and hardwood is called "non-wood paper." Utilizing non-wood paper helps reduce excessive deforestation. Additionally, it is appealing because there are many types with unique textures that are not found in wood paper. Examples of raw materials for non-wood paper include bagasse and kenaf. Common examples include kozo and mitsumata, which are traditional raw materials for Japanese paper. Non-wood paper is used in various applications, including letter paper, tabletop calendars, wrapping paper, as well as tissue paper and toilet seat covers. Chainstream Co., Ltd. conducts OEM planning and manufacturing of original goods utilizing non-wood materials. The products handled range from bagasse tableware and kitchen goods to apparel accessories. If you are interested in OEM manufacturing, please consult Chainstream Co., Ltd.

basic information
Benefits of Using Bagasse Bagasse is a byproduct of sugar and is supplied consistently every year. Traditionally, it was treated as waste, but it is now being reused due to its contribution to environmental conservation. By making paper dishes from bagasse, we can reduce the amount of wood used, thus protecting forests. Additionally, since there is no need for logging or transportation, we can minimize carbon dioxide emissions and costs associated with those processes. Furthermore, bagasse is softer than wood, allowing for energy savings during the production of bagasse pulp. Dishes and containers made from bagasse are characterized by their eco-friendliness. We are also working on a project to coat the interior of the dishes to enhance water resistance and durability. This has enabled film printing, expanding the range of design options. Made from a dense, fibrous material, these dishes are lightweight yet resistant to deformation, unlike regular paper plates. They are very sturdy, so there is no worry about them collapsing under heavy food items.

Applications/Examples of results
■Handling of Bagasse Products After Use Bagasse tableware and containers can be disposed of as burnable waste, but they can also be processed in the following ways. 【Soil Restoration】 Bagasse tableware and containers can decompose when buried in soil. When burying them, it is better to ensure that soil fills the gaps between the containers and to bury them in a location that is not too deep, as this promotes decomposition. 【Collection by Old Paper Recycling Companies】 It is also possible to have local old paper recycling companies collect them. However, depending on the level of contamination and the quantity, they may refuse to collect them, so it is advisable to consult with the company.
Company information
Envisioning a better future for people and the planet, we create products that support the SDGs using sustainable materials. We provide one-stop support for our customers' SDGs initiatives, from planning to product development. Plastic products are essential in our daily lives. However, plastic materials pose environmental issues, as burning them generates carbon dioxide, and when discarded, they do not decompose and remain as waste. We are compelled to address various challenges aimed at reducing plastic to conserve the Earth's environment. In response to these challenges, we, Chainstream Co., Ltd., will answer through "manufacturing." We are experimenting with methods to reduce petroleum-based plastics and provide optimal solutions for all companies committed to achieving the SDGs. That is 'SUSLAB.'
