Biodegradable Plates

Buyer’s Guide to Choosing Biodegradable Plates and Bowls

Biodegradable plates and bowls provide practical serving options for parties, takeaway meals, catering and commercial foodservice. Insinc’s range includes sugarcane, bagasse, BioCane and selected plant-based products in sizes suited to appetisers, side dishes, main meals, soups and desserts.

Choose from round and oval plates, three-compartment dinner plates, small portion bowls and larger lidded bowls for takeaway service.

Which Plate or Bowl Size Do You Need?

Side plates from approximately 15cm to 18cm suit snacks, desserts and light servings. Larger 22cm to 26cm dinner plates provide more space for full meals, while compartment plates help keep different foods separated.

Bowls range from small 50ml tasting portions to larger 700ml, 950ml and 40oz formats. Check the listed capacity and dimensions against your usual serving size before ordering.

Do You Need a Lid?

Selected sugarcane and BioCane bowls have compatible flat, dome, PET or matching fibre lids available separately. Similar-looking lids are not always interchangeable, so confirm the bowl size, rim dimensions and product range before purchasing.

Biodegradable and compostable are not identical claims. Disposal requirements depend on the individual product’s materials, certification and whether suitable composting or waste facilities are available locally.
