Sustainable Material Innovation

Sugarcane bagasse is the fibrous residue that remains after extracting juice from sugarcane. Instead of being discarded or burned as agricultural waste, it can be molded into functional, compostable tableware through a low-impact production process.

This makes bagasse one of the most sustainable raw materials in today’s packaging industry — renewable, carbon-efficient, and biodegradable. The CL-79 utilizes this resource to eliminate dependence on petroleum-based plastics and significantly reduce carbon emissions during production.

Every CL-79 lid is a small but meaningful contribution toward a circular economy, where waste is transformed into valuable new resources.

Design & Performance

The CL-79 Bagasse Lid is not just sustainable — it’s engineered for real-world use. It features a precision-molded structure that provides a tight seal and strong rigidity, ensuring food remains secure during delivery or transport.

Key Design Features:

• Perfect Compatibility: Custom-designed to pair seamlessly with DC-79 and SC-79 bagasse containers.

• Secure Sealing: Reinforced rim prevents leaks and keeps the contents safe even with moist or oily foods.

• Stackable Efficiency: The uniform design allows multiple containers to be stacked securely, saving storage and transport space.

• Natural Texture: The smooth matte surface highlights the natural origin of sugarcane fibers while adding a clean, minimalist aesthetic.

• Durability Under Pressure: Despite being lightweight, the CL-79 maintains its shape under heavy meals or delivery stacking.

Thermal and Liquid Resistance

The CL-79 is engineered for high performance under a variety of foodservice conditions:

• Microwave Safe (up to 120°C): Reheat meals safely without melting or deforming.

• Freezer Safe (down to -20°C): Perfect for pre-packed or frozen meals.

• Moisture Control: Bagasse fibers are densely pressed, preventing absorption and sogginess.

• Oil and Sauce Resistance: Suitable for oily, saucy, or liquid-based dishes like curries, stews, or pasta.

This versatility makes the CL-79 an excellent choice for both hot and cold food packaging, ensuring reliability across temperature extremes.

Environmental Commitment

At DASHAN, sustainability is more than a trend — it’s a guiding principle. From sourcing renewable fibers to adopting energy-efficient production lines, the CL-79 reflects a holistic approach to green manufacturing.

Environmental Benefits:

• 100% Compostable: Naturally decomposes into organic matter within 3–4 months in composting facilities.

• Carbon-Neutral Production: Bagasse manufacturing emits significantly fewer greenhouse gases than plastic or foam.

• Zero Plastic, Zero Coating: No synthetic resins or wax layers — only pure, natural fiber.

• Non-Toxic & Food Safe: Certified BPA-free, PFAS-free, and compliant with FDA and EU standards.

By switching to bagasse lids like CL-79, foodservice operators can drastically cut down single-use plastic waste while aligning with international sustainability goals and local green policies.

Applications Across Food Industries

The CL-79 Bagasse Lid is designed for a wide range of practical foodservice scenarios, including:

• Restaurant Takeout & Delivery: Maintains temperature and freshness while preventing leaks.

• Catering & Banquet Services: Provides professional-grade presentation for multi-course meal trays.

• Supermarkets & Meal Prep: Ideal for pre-packed lunches, salads, or deli-style offerings.

• Airline, Railway & Event Catering: Lightweight yet durable — perfect for large-scale transport and storage.

Wherever food is served, the CL-79 provides both a professional look and a responsible environmental message.

Manufacturing Excellence

The CL-79 is produced using advanced thermoforming technology under stringent quality control standards. Each lid undergoes:

1. Fiber Pulping: Natural sugarcane fibers are cleaned, pulped, and refined.

2. Molding & Pressing: Pulp is formed into shape using high temperature and pressure.

3. Drying & Trimming: Precision finishing ensures consistent dimensions and smooth edges.

4. Sterilization & Packaging: All products are sanitized and ready for direct food contact.

The result is a premium-grade, compostable lid that balances mechanical strength with environmental responsibility.

Pairing Options

The CL-79 pairs perfectly with DASHAN’s rectangular series:

• DC-79 (1500ml deep box): Ideal for full meals with soups, stews, or large portions.

• SC-79 (1200ml shallow box): Perfect for noodles, rice bowls, salads, and stir-fried dishes.

This lid-and-box combination offers a complete sustainable packaging system, providing airtight protection while maintaining a polished presentation.
