10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plates (500 pcs)

1. Product overview of 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plates

The Lumapack 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plate is a round open-form plate made from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), with three moulded compartments that keep food components physically separated on a single plate. At 10 inches in diameter and 20mm in height, it provides a practical full-meal presentation format for foodservice and catering operations where separated components need to be served together without mixing.

The three-compartment layout suits operators serving main and side combinations – a protein or main dish in the larger section alongside two smaller sides, sauces, or accompaniments in the flanking compartments. This removes the need for separate sauce pots or additional crockery during service, simplifying throughput at the point of plating.

The plate is manufactured from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), a renewable plant-based material produced as a by-product of sugarcane processing. It contains no PE lining and is suitable for direct food contact under UK market requirements. The bagasse construction provides natural grease resistance and modest moisture resistance, maintaining rigidity when loaded with hot food, cold prepared dishes, or moist components under standard foodservice conditions.

The plate is microwavable and freezer safe, and is industrially compostable, offering a lower-impact alternative to conventional single-use plastic plates. Each case contains 500 plates.

2. Typical foodservice uses for 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plates

The three-compartment format is selected where a complete meal presentation is required in a single unit, with components kept physically separated. Common applications include:

• Hot main meal and sides service at restaurants, canteens, and catering operations, where a protein, a carbohydrate side, and a vegetable or sauce portion are plated together on one dish without mixing during service or delivery
• Buffet and event catering where self-service or pre-plated meals are required for outdoor events, hospitality events, corporate catering, and festivals – the compartment layout maintains presentation for guests collecting plates at a counter
• School meal and institutional catering operations that plate full meals with separated components for volume service, where the rigid plate can be loaded quickly and held without flexing
• Takeaway and food delivery operations where a complete meal needs to be transported with separated components, avoiding sauce migration across food during transit
• Street food and market catering where a full-meal format in a single rigid plate reduces the number of components a customer needs to handle when eating on the go
• Meal-prep operations that require microwave-safe and freezer-safe plates allowing food to be portioned, frozen, and reheated in the same container

3. Operational benefits of 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plates for foodservice and catering

• Three-compartment layout keeps food components separated: The moulded internal dividers prevent cross-migration of sauces, juices, and dry components during plating, service, and transport. This supports consistent presentation without requiring separate sauce pots or additional serving vessels.
• Rigid construction holds shape under a full meal serving: The bagasse fibre construction maintains plate shape when loaded with hot food, including moist dishes and protein with sauce, without flexing or deforming under standard handling. This supports consistent presentation during counter service, buffet service, and delivery.
• Microwavable and freezer safe: Both properties are supported by the bagasse material specification, allowing the same plate to be used from frozen storage through to microwave reheating. This supports meal-prep and batch-cooking operations without requiring transfer to a separate vessel.
• Suitable for hot and cold food applications: The plate handles freshly cooked hot food and cold prepared dishes under standard foodservice conditions. Grease resistance and modest moisture resistance are provided by the natural bagasse fibre.
• Industrially compostable plant-based material: Bagasse is manufactured with no PE lining. The full plate is industrially compostable and contains no PFAS-added coatings, supporting operators managing sustainability commitments or working with venues requiring compostable serviceware.
• Consistent sizing across 500-piece cases: Uniform dimensions within each case support standardised service workflows and reliable stack storage, reducing handling time during busy service periods.

5. What sets these 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plates from Lumapack apart

Compared with conventional plastic compartment plates and foam alternatives, the Lumapack 10" Bagasse 3 Compartment Round Plate offers a plant-based material profile with practical foodservice performance.

Three-compartment format in a round plate footprint

Unlike plain round plates that require additional side dishes or sauce pots to separate meal components, the moulded three-compartment divider integrates this function into a single plate. This simplifies service, reduces the number of items per cover, and supports consistent plating across busy service periods.

Plant-based construction with no PE lining

The plate is produced entirely from sugarcane fibre with no plastic lining. The full plate is industrially compostable and contains no PFAS-added coatings, making it suitable for operators managing sustainability requirements across events, venues, and catering contracts where compostable serviceware is specified.

Rigid enough for full-meal service without separate crockery

The bagasse fibre construction is rigid under load, supporting use as a standalone plate for hot or cold full-meal portions without flexing. This makes it suitable for events, institutional catering, and delivery-led operations where a stable, self-supporting plate is needed without using washable crockery.

Microwavable and freezer safe in a single format

The bagasse specification supports both freezer storage and microwave reheating, allowing the same plate to be used from pre-portioned frozen storage through to customer reheating, without transfer to a different vessel.
