7" Bagasse Round Plates (1000 pcs)

1. Product overview of 7" Bagasse Round Plates

The Lumapack 7" Bagasse Round Plate is a round open-form food plate made from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), designed for professional foodservice, catering, and events use. With a diameter of 7 inches (approximately 178mm) and a height of 15mm, it provides a rigid, presentable surface for starters, desserts, side dishes, and lighter main courses.

Manufactured without PE lining, PFAS-added coatings, or BPA, this plate is suitable for direct food contact under UK market requirements. Its natural bagasse fibre construction offers a grease-resistant surface and holds its shape under a full serving without flexing, making it a dependable option for counter service, buffet, and event catering environments.

The plate is microwavable and freezer safe, supporting kitchen operations that require a single container capable of moving from cold storage through to microwave reheating without repacking. As an industrially compostable product, it offers a lower-impact alternative to conventional plastic or polystyrene disposable plates for operators managing their packaging footprint.

Each case contains 1,000 plates.

2. Typical foodservice uses for 7" Bagasse Round Plates

The 7" round format is commonly selected where a mid-size rigid plate is needed for individual servings in catering, events, and foodservice environments. Common applications include:

• Starters and appetisers served at restaurants, hospitality events, and catering operations, where a compact yet rigid plate provides a clean, presentable format for individual portions
• Desserts and sweet courses at events, weddings, and corporate catering, where the 7" diameter suits cakes, pastries, and plated desserts without excess plate surface
• Side dishes and accompaniments served alongside main meals at counter service outlets, canteens, and buffet-style operations
• Street food and outdoor events where a self-supporting, grease-resistant plate is required for food served in a festival, market, or pop-up catering context
• Buffet and event catering where consistent plate sizing, easy stacking, and a presentable white finish are required across large covers
• Cold prepared food including salads, cold protein portions, and deli-style plates at food-to-go counters and delicatessens

This format is particularly well suited to event caterers, hospitality businesses, and operators running buffet or reception-style service where a rigid, compostable plate is required in volume.

3. Operational benefits of 7" Bagasse Round Plates for foodservice and events

• Rigid construction that holds shape under a full serving: The bagasse fibre construction maintains rigidity under a standard food serving, including grilled food, cold dishes, and sauced items, without flexing or deforming during service. This supports consistent food presentation across high-volume catering operations.
• Grease-resistant surface: The natural bagasse fibre provides resistance to oil and grease migration from hot food, reducing bleed-through during service and keeping the plate surface clean for front-of-house presentation.
• Microwavable and freezer safe: Both properties are supported by the bagasse material specification, allowing the same plate to move from cold storage to microwave reheating without requiring a separate vessel. This is particularly useful for meal-prep and batch catering operations.
• Industrially compostable material for operators managing sustainability commitments: The plate is produced entirely from sugarcane fibre with no plastic lining, making the full plate industrially compostable where appropriate facilities are available. This supports operators working with venues, clients, or events that require compostable disposable tableware.
• Consistent sizing and easy stacking: Uniform dimensions within the round plate format support consistent operation across service periods and simplify storage in high-volume kitchen and event environments.
