Eco-Friendly Material: 100% Sugarcane Bagasse

CTLID is made entirely from sugarcane bagasse — a renewable agricultural by-product that requires no tree cutting, no toxic additives, and far less energy compared with petroleum-based materials. The lid is naturally biodegradable and compostable under commercial composting conditions, breaking down into organic matter instead of adding to plastic pollution. Its smooth texture, natural color, and clean production standards reflect DASHAN’s commitment to sustainable innovation.

Precision Fit for CT850, CT1100, and CT1300 Containers

This lid is engineered with exacting dimensions to provide a reliable, secure fit across three major DASHAN container models:

• CT850: Ideal for single meals, rice boxes, and set menus

• CT1100: Suitable for larger lunch combos or dinner portions

• CT1300: Designed for oversized meals, salads, noodles, or mixed dishes

The shared lid design allows businesses to simplify inventory management, reduce storage needs, and streamline operations across different food portions while maintaining consistency in appearance and compatibility.

Durability and Strength for Foodservice Operations

Although CTLID is made from plant fibers, it delivers durability comparable to or stronger than many thin plastic lids. The rigid bagasse structure provides excellent protection during stacking, transport, and handling. Even when used in busy commercial kitchens or high-volume delivery environments, it maintains its shape without bending or warping. The lid withstands common food temperatures and resists deformation from warm dishes, ensuring reliability across various menu types.

Natural Grease and Moisture Resistance

Thanks to the density and fiber integrity of sugarcane pulp, CTLID exhibits built-in grease resistance that helps prevent food oils from soaking through or weakening the lid. When paired with its compatible containers, it helps maintain product strength and reduces the likelihood of spills, leaks, or soggy packaging. This performance makes it suitable for meals containing sauces, curries, stir-fried dishes, or oily ingredients.

Microwave-Safe and Heat-Tolerant

CTLID is microwave-safe, allowing end users to reheat their meals safely without removing the lid. This is especially beneficial for meal-prep businesses, office deliveries, convenience stores, and airline catering services where reheating convenience is important. Unlike many plastic lids that release odors or warp when heated, bagasse retains integrity under typical microwave settings and does not compromise food safety.

Enhancing Food Presentation and Customer Experience

A lid is the first thing customers see when receiving a takeaway meal. CTLID offers a clean, natural aesthetic that gives the packaging a premium, eco-friendly appeal. Its neutral color and smooth texture support branding, making dishes feel fresh, hygienic, and professionally prepared. Restaurants and food brands aiming to communicate sustainability will find this lid aligned with their values and marketing goals.

Stackability and Storage Efficiency

The CTLID design supports secure stacking, enabling efficient storage in kitchens, warehouses, and delivery operations. During transport, multiple packed meals can be safely stacked without collapsing or damaging the food. This structural strength helps businesses avoid spills, maintain meal integrity, and improve delivery efficiency, especially during peak hours.

A Practical Choice for Restaurants, Caterers, and Delivery Brands

From street vendors to national food chains, CTLID serves as a reliable packaging solution across various segments:

• Restaurants & Cafés – for takeaway, dine-in storage, and food preparation

• Catering Services – for events, banquets, and corporate gatherings

• Supermarkets & Meal Prep Brands – for ready-made food displays and reheatable meals

• Cloud Kitchens & Delivery Platforms – ensuring food remains intact during long delivery routes

Its compatibility with multiple container sizes reduces operational waste and simplifies purchasing for large-scale buyers.

Environmental Benefits for Modern Food Policies

As global regulations continue to restrict single-use plastics, especially in Europe, Canada, and parts of Asia, sugarcane bagasse packaging offers a compliant and future-proof solution. CTLID aligns with international sustainable packaging standards and supports businesses in meeting ESG and environmental commitments. Choosing this lid helps reduce carbon footprint and demonstrates environmental responsibility to consumers.

Safe, Non-Toxic, and Food-Grade

CTLID is produced under strict quality controls, ensuring it meets food-contact safety regulations. It contains no PFAS, no bleaching agents, and no harmful chemicals. The lid is safe for hot and cold foods, suitable for direct contact, and does not affect taste or aroma. Its structure is odor-free and hypoallergenic, making it suitable for sensitive customers and high-quality food menus.
