CapeCup's Sustainable Bagasse Sugar Cane Lids: A Plastic-Free Game-Changer at No Extra Cost
Jurjen Sjouerman

CapeCup is proud to bring you an amazing alternative to plastic lids: sustainable bagasse sugar cane lids, and guess what? They're available at the same price! We’ve done this to build on our goal of providing our customers with more quality eco-friendly alternatives to plastic – without you having to break the bank.


The Plastic Predicament

Plastic lids have become commonplace in the food and beverage industry, but their convenience comes at a heavy environmental cost. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, and much of it ends up polluting our oceans, harming marine life, and causing widespread ecological damage. The demand for eco-friendly alternatives has never been more urgent.


Introducing Bagasse Sugar Cane Lids

Bagasse is a natural by-product of the sugar cane industry that is often discarded or burned as waste. Thanks to clever innovations, this waste can now be transformed into a range of eco-friendly products, including lids, making it a fantastic choice for environmentally conscious packaging.

 

3 Top Advantages of Choosing CapeCup Bagasse Sugar Cane Lids


​1. Renewable, Biodegradable and Home Compostable

Bagasse is derived from sugar cane, one of the fastest-growing crops and an energy-efficient CO2 absorber. Unlike plastic, our bagasse lids are completely biodegradable, certified home compostable, marine degradable and do not contribute to long-term environmental pollution.


​2. Same Price, No Compromise

Perhaps the most fantastic benefit for South African businesses is that these eco-friendly bagasse sugar cane lids are available at no extra cost compared to traditional plastic lids. This equal pricing eliminates a common obstacle to adopting eco-friendly alternatives and encourages widespread use.


​3. Versatile and Durable

Bagasse sugar cane lids have excellent thermal insulation properties, making them suitable for both hot and cold beverages. They are sturdy and dependable, ensuring a positive customer experience without compromising functionality.
