Sugarcane is a sustainable material and produces strong fibers used to make bags, wicker furniture and paper.
The dry remaining residue after the extraction of juices from the crushed stalks of sugarcane, is a renewable raw material (called bagasse). As a by-product of the sugar industry, bagasse was generally disposed of but now it’s turned into paper!. Using sugarcane to produce paper can save thousands of trees each year. For
ecoafriq, the sugarcane inspired these plastic free, biodegradable drinking straws. They come in a pack of 30 straws and are available at our online shop.
