Strong Hinged Clamshell Design
The lid and base are formed as one integrated container. This means staff do not need to match separate lids and bases during busy service periods.
The hinged design allows the box to be opened quickly for filling and closed after preparation. When correctly closed, the lid helps protect the food from handling, airborne contamination and direct contact during collection or delivery.
Check that the front closure is properly engaged before handing the order to the customer or placing it inside a takeaway bag.
Suitable for Hot and Cold Food
These bagasse burger boxes can be used for hot takeaway food as well as appropriate cold dishes. The moulded fibre construction provides greater rigidity and moisture resistance than many lightweight paper cartons.
They are suitable for freshly prepared burgers, warm sandwiches, breakfast rolls, chilled sandwiches and cold snacks.
Allow very hot food to release excess steam briefly before fully closing the box. This can help reduce condensation and maintain the intended food texture during transport.
Leak-Resistant for Typical Takeaway Foods
The moulded bagasse construction provides useful resistance to oil, grease and moisture during normal takeaway service. This makes the box suitable for burgers containing cheese, sauces, vegetables and other moist ingredients.
The container is leak-resistant rather than completely leakproof. It should remain upright during handling and delivery and is not intended for soups, drinks or large quantities of free-flowing liquid.
Microwave Reheating Guidance
These bagasse burger boxes are suitable for appropriate short-duration microwave reheating. Use heating times suitable for the food type, portion size and microwave power.
Open or loosen the lid before reheating where appropriate to allow steam to escape. Both the food and container may become hot, so use suitable handling precautions.
Do not place the box beneath a grill, in direct contact with an exposed heating element or near an open flame.
Made from Moulded Sugarcane Fibre
Bagasse is the fibrous material remaining after juice has been extracted from sugarcane. These fibres can be moulded into rigid foodservice packaging such as burger boxes, plates, bowls and meal containers.
Using bagasse provides a plant-based alternative to conventional foam and plastic takeaway packaging while still delivering the practical strength required for professional foodservice use.
Compostable Takeaway Packaging
These boxes are made from compostable bagasse fibre. Composting performance depends on suitable environmental conditions, food contamination and the collection or processing facilities available locally.
Check the guidance supplied by your local authority or commercial waste contractor. Compostable food packaging should not automatically be placed in standard paper recycling unless the relevant waste provider confirms that it is accepted.

Choosing the Correct Box Size
The 145 × 145 × 75mm size is designed primarily for standard burgers, breakfast rolls, sandwiches and smaller takeaway portions.
Measure unusually tall or oversized burgers before ordering. Double burgers, heavily loaded gourmet burgers or meals containing several side portions may require a larger bagasse clamshell container.

Storage and Handling Guidance
Store unused burger boxes in their original packaging in a clean and dry location. Keep them away from moisture, direct heat, prolonged sunlight and strong odours.
Keep the outer case closed until the containers are required to help protect them from dust and accidental contamination.
Avoid overfilling the base, as excessive food can prevent the lid from closing correctly. Keep filled boxes upright, particularly when the food contains sauces, grease or moisture.
