Compostable Bagasse Clamshell Takeaway Boxes – 450ml, 600ml & 1000ml, 200 Pack

Sugarcane bagasse clamshell takeaway boxes in three sizes — a 450ml 6x6" burger box, a 600ml 7x5" meal box, and a 1000ml 9x6" larger meal box — supplied in cases of 200. Plastic-free, grease-resistant and built to survive a delivery run without going soggy or leaking.

Why UK takeaways choose bagasse clamshells

• Handles hot, oily and saucy food. Bagasse resists grease far better than plain cardboard, so curries, chips and burgers arrive intact.
• Microwave and freezer safe. Customers can reheat leftovers straight in the box.
• Hinged lid, secure close. One-piece clamshell design — no separate lids to store, sort or lose.
• Outside the single-use plastic ban. Bagasse is not plastic, so it falls outside the October 2023 England ban and outside the Plastic Packaging Tax.
• Industrially compostable. Made from sugarcane fibre, a by-product of sugar production, it breaks down in commercial composting conditions.
• Stackable. Nests tightly, so it takes up less shelf space than polystyrene equivalents.

Which size do I need?

• 450ml (6x6") burger box — gourmet burgers, wraps, loaded fries, bao, pastries, single-portion sides.
• 600ml (7x5") meal box — rice dishes, pasta, salads, hot deli portions, kids' meals.
• 1000ml (9x6") meal box — larger mains, sharing portions, multi-item meals.

Who it's for

Takeaways, burger vans and street food traders, cafés and delis, event and wedding caterers, dark kitchens, and any food business moving away from polystyrene. Sold in bulk cases of 200 for commercial kitchens.

Disposal

These boxes are designed for industrial composting, not a home compost bin. Most UK councils do not accept compostable packaging in kerbside food waste, so check your local waste contractor or arrange a commercial composting collection. Where composting isn't available, they still avoid the plastic and polystyrene the alternatives rely on.
