With a footprint of 238mm × 238mm and a height of 70mm, it provides a practical multi-component solution for takeaway, delivery, and catering operations that need to keep different food items divided without requiring multiple containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree internal moulded compartments allow operators to present a main portion alongside sides, sauces, or accompaniments within one self-contained box. The integrated hinged clamshell design closes securely without the need for a separate lid, simplifying packing and reducing the number of packaging components required during service. The 9\" square format is well suited to full meal portions and multi-element dishes commonly found in delivery-led and restaurant takeaway operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe box is manufactured from sugarcane fibre (bagasse), a renewable plant-based material produced as a by-product of sugarcane processing. It contains no PE lining, no PFAS-added coatings, and no BPA, and is suitable for direct food contact under UK market requirements. As an industrially compostable product, it offers a lower-impact alternative to conventional plastic food containers for foodservice operators seeking to reduce their packaging footprint.

This allows operators to include sauces, sides, or accompaniments within the same box without cross-contamination of components, reducing the need for additional small pots or separate containers for each element.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNo separate lid required: The integrated hinged clamshell design closes securely without a separate lid, reducing the number of packaging components required per order and simplifying packing workflows during busy service periods. There is no risk of lid-size mismatches or incorrect lid selection when packing at volume.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMicrowavable and freezer safe: Both properties are supported by the bagasse material specification, allowing the same container to be used from freezer storage through to microwave reheating without requiring the customer to transfer food to a different vessel. This makes the box well suited to meal-prep services, dark kitchen delivery operations, and restaurant services where end customers reheat food at home.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eRigid square construction maintains shape under load: The square bagasse fibre construction holds its shape when filled with hot food, moist dishes, and cold prepared food throughout standard packing and delivery workflows. The 9\" square footprint provides a generous capacity while remaining a manageable size for service, counter packing, and delivery bag formats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIndustrially compostable material for lower-impact operations: Bagasse is a plant-based, industrially compostable material with no plastic lining.
