Sugar cane waste fiber, or 'bagasse,' is used to make CaneFields eco-friendly paper products. The use of waste keeps it from the landfill. CaneFields' carbon neutral paper products also use renewable energy to further reduce their carbon footprint.

By using agro-waste, CaneFields eco-friendly paper products are part of sustainable development, social responsibility and natural preservation. Sugarcane paper helps to preserve forests because no tree pulp is used.

**Implications** - The paper is of high quality and has a friendly pricetag. Along with bagasse, the CaneFields products are also made with plantation fiber; which is eucalyptus. The eucalyptus trees are grown and planted around the mill, so no unnecessary deforestation occurs. The paper comes in a nice big package, so you could even use it to print and fax things at work.
