How Do You Read a Bagasse Tableware Spec Sheet?
A bagasse spec sheet row gives ten things: model, capacity, size, piece weight, pieces per sleeve, pieces per carton, carton size, carton volume, net and gross carton weight, and container loading. For example, the 1,000 ml bowl JR-B20 is 210 × 210 × 60 mm, 20 g, packed 500 per carton of 57 × 43.5 × 22.5 cm (0.0558 m³, 11 kg gross), about 609,000 pieces per 40HQ. Three checks catch most errors: recalculate the carton volume, compare net weight with piece weight, and ask how capacity is measured.
The 1,000 ml bowl JR-B20, field by field
Values as published in the bowls specification table.
| Field | JR-B20 | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|
| Model | JR-B20 | The reference to quote in an enquiry. Jirun's JR numbers are provisional site references until factory article numbers are issued. |
| Capacity | 1,000 ml (33.8 US fl oz) | The volume named in the catalogue. Ask whether it is brim-full or to a fill line before comparing suppliers. |
| Size | 210 × 210 × 60 mm | Length × width × height of the piece. For a round bowl the first two figures are the rim diameter. |
| Weight | 20 g | Mass of one piece. Heavier pieces of the same size have thicker walls. |
| Pieces per sleeve | 50 | Pieces stacked and wrapped together as one inner pack. |
| Pieces per carton | 500 | Sleeves per carton × pieces per sleeve: here 10 × 50. |
| Carton size | 57 × 43.5 × 22.5 cm | Outer dimensions of the export carton. |
| Carton volume (CBM) | 0.0558 m³ | Length × width × height in metres. Recalculate it yourself; it drives freight cost. |
| Net and gross weight | 10 kg net, 11 kg gross | Weight of the pieces alone, and of the packed carton including sleeves and the carton itself. |
| 20GP and 40HQ | 250,500 and 609,000 pcs | Approximate pieces per container, calculated from carton volume. |
Three checks before you compare suppliers
1 · Recalculate the carton volume
57 × 43.5 × 22.5 cm ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.0558 m³. Catalogue CBM columns are often typed by hand; on this site every carton volume is recalculated from the carton dimensions.
2 · Net weight against piece weight
500 × 20 g = 10 kg, catalogue net weight 10 kg. If the two disagree, either the piece count or the piece weight is wrong.
3 · Sleeves against pieces per carton
10 sleeves × 50 = 500. A sleeve count that does not multiply out to the carton quantity is a common catalogue error.
What a spec sheet does not tell you
The grease barrier. The same model is made in several grades. The sheet's dimensions do not change, but the temperature limit and the market it can be sold in do. Compare the grades.
Test evidence. A spec sheet is not a test report. Ask which report covers the model and grade you are buying.See what has been tested.
Colour. Natural and white versions share one row; say which you need.
Lids. Lids are separate models with their own rows, and the fit has to be confirmed per model.
Questions buyers ask
What does CBM mean on a bagasse tableware spec sheet?
CBM is the volume of one export carton in cubic metres: carton length × width × height in centimetres, divided by 1,000,000. For JR-B20 that is 57 × 43.5 × 22.5 ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.0558 m³. Freight and container loading are calculated from it.
How do I check that a spec sheet row is consistent?
Multiply pieces per carton by the piece weight and compare with the net carton weight. For JR-B20: 500 × 20 g = 10 kg, and the catalogue net weight is 10 kg. Then recalculate the carton volume from the carton dimensions. A row that fails either check needs a question to the supplier.
Is the capacity on a bagasse spec sheet brim-full or usable volume?
It varies by supplier, and the sheet rarely says. Jirun's catalogue capacities are brim-full, measured to the rim (factory information), so the usable volume with a lid on is lower. Test samples with your own portions.
What is the difference between net weight and gross weight per carton?
Net weight is the pieces only; gross weight adds the sleeves and the carton. For JR-B20 the net weight is 10 kg and the gross weight is 11 kg, so the packaging accounts for 1 kg per carton.
What does "On request" mean in Jirun's specification tables?
It means the catalogue value for that field is missing or inconsistent and is being confirmed with the factory, so it is not published. Of 115 catalogue models, 82 have confirmed packing data and 74 have a catalogue capacity; ask us for any field marked "On request".
