The material

What is sugarcane bioplastic?


Sugarcane bioplastic — also called green PE, sugarcane HDPE, or sugarcane-derived PE — is a bio-based polyethylene made from sugarcane ethanol. Each bottle is made from 99% sugarcane-derived material.

As the sugarcane crop grows, it sequesters atmospheric CO₂. That carbon is locked into the polymer chain of every bottle. When full lifecycle emissions are measured — farming, ethanol extraction, polymerisation, production, and transport — the bottle still absorbs more CO₂ than it releases. The material carries the Braskem "I'm green™" certification independently verifying this.

Green PE is chemically identical to conventional HDPE: same food-safety profile, same barrier properties, same recyclability in existing PE waste streams. Same durability. Radically different origin.

This makes sugarcane bottles the only mainstream bottle material with a net-negative lifecycle carbon footprint — and the strongest choice for organisations working on net-zero supply chains, Scope 3 emission reductions, or EU CSRD compliance.

Sugarcane-based material

Every bottle is made from 99% sugarcane-derived PE, verified by Braskem's "I'm green™" certification.

−CO₂

Net-negative lifecycle

LCA data: sugarcane PE absorbs more CO₂ during crop growth than is emitted across production and end-of-life.

~75%

Lower carbon vs fossil plastic

Compared to petroleum-based HDPE, sugarcane PE generates approximately 75% fewer kg CO₂e per kg produced.

How do I order branded sugarcane bottles?
Use the quote request form on the branded bottles page or email us at sales.nl@jointhepipe.com. Tell us your quantity, preferred bottle style, and branding requirements and we'll send a quote within 1 business day.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The minimum order for custom-branded bottles is 100 pieces. Full-colour branding — screen printing or digital printing — is included from 100 units.
What branding options are available?
We offer screen printing (1–3 Pantone spot colours, minimum 100 units; 3-colour from 2,500 units) and full-colour digital printing (CMYK, ideal for photographs and complex artwork, available in two print sizes). Both are available on all bottle models.
What file format do I need for my logo or artwork?
For screen printing: AI, EPS, or PDF in vector format with Pantone (PMS) spot colours — not RGB or CMYK. For digital printing: PDF, JPEG, PNG, or TIFF in CMYK at 300 dpi minimum. Not sure about your files? Upload what you have when submitting a quote and our team will advise.
Will I see a proof before production starts?
Yes. We send a digital artwork proof for your review and approval before any production begins. Production starts only once you have approved the proof in writing.
How long does delivery take?
From artwork approval: approximately 10 working days for production, plus 1–3 business days delivery within the Netherlands and Belgium, or 2–5 business days for the rest of Europe. Express options may be available — ask when requesting a quote.
Do you ship outside the Netherlands?
Yes, we ship across Europe — Germany, Belgium, France, the UK, Spain, Italy, Poland, Scandinavia, and more. Contact us if your country is not listed and we'll check what's possible.
What are the payment terms?
We invoice after delivery with 30-day payment terms. All prices are quoted excluding VAT. EU businesses outside the Netherlands can apply the VAT reverse charge with a valid VAT number.
