The Fiber
What Bagasse Is
Bagasse is the fiber left over after sugarcane is pressed. Sugarcane regrows in months, not decades — which is why bagasse is classified as a rapidly renewable fiber. SUSTAIN blends it with FSC-certified fibers to produce a packaging board with no virgin trees in the sheet.
