Upgrade your beverage service with sugarcane fiber straws – the heavy-duty, heat-resistant alternative to paper and plastic. Made from 100% reclaimed sugarcane pulp (bagasse), these straws perform where others fail: from frozen smoothies to hot coffee, from cocktail hour to bubble tea.
Unlike paper straws that get soggy or PLA straws that require industrial composting, our sugarcane fiber straws are home compostable, microwave-safe for warm drinks, and tough enough for thick smoothies and boba.
What makes them better:
🌡️ Extreme temperature range – Use from -30°C (frozen cocktails) to 85°C (hot lattes)
💪 Sturdy & non-soggy – Lasts hours in liquids without breaking down
🌍 Zero waste – Home compostable within 3–6 months
🧋 Boba-friendly – Wide 12mm option for tapioca pearls, smoothies, and slushies
✨ Customizable – Your size, your packaging, your brand
Perfect for: bubble tea shops, coffee houses, juice bars, restaurants, event planners, and eco-conscious brands.
