11 Inch & 12 Inch 4-Compartment Bagasse Plates Compostable Tableware

Product Overview

Costita offers 4-Compartment Bagasse Plates in 11-inch and 12-inch sizes for restaurants, catering companies, institutional dining, food courts, cloud kitchens and takeaway food-service businesses. Manufactured from 100% renewable sugarcane bagasse pulp, these compostable plates provide separate serving sections for complete meals while supporting organised food presentation and efficient meal service.

The four-compartment design helps keep main dishes and side servings separated throughout serving, transportation and consumption. Suitable for high-volume meal distribution, catering events and institutional food programs, these plates support consistent portion presentation while reducing food mixing.

Available Sizes

11-Inch 4-Compartment Plate: Suitable for complete meals with one main dish and three side servings.

12-Inch 4-Compartment Plate: Suitable for larger meal portions requiring separate sections for one main dish and three side servings.

Material and Construction

The plates are manufactured from 100% renewable sugarcane bagasse pulp using a heat-pressed molding process. They feature a uniform wall thickness of 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm, providing a firm structure for commercial food-service applications.

Available in natural beige or chlorine-free bleached white, the plates have a smooth, uniform surface with no loose fibres. They feature clean machine-cut edges, a neutral, odourless finish and consistent colour throughout each production batch. Manufacturing includes high-heat UV treatment after molding, and the material is 100% PFAS-free, with no intentionally added fluorine.

Product Performance

The four-compartment design helps separate different food items while maintaining an organised meal presentation. The plates are suitable for temperatures from -25°C to +220°C.

They are certified for microwave use for 2 to 3 minutes at high power and are suitable for oven use up to 220°C for a maximum of 30 minutes.

The material is resistant to hot oil up to 120°C and hot water up to 100°C. Depending on the selected size, the plates can support food loads from 500 g to 800 g. Their tight stackable design supports convenient storage, handling and transportation throughout commercial food-service operations.

Packing and Logistics

The plates are packed in 50-piece packs, available with shrink wrap or paper wrap, and supplied in 5-ply or 7-ply heavy-duty corrugated cartons for warehouse storage and export.

The nesting profile helps reduce unused carton space during storage and transportation while supporting stable stacking throughout distribution. Products should be stored in a dry, ventilated area with relative humidity below 60%.
