Functional Eco-Friendly Food Packaging For Dry Products
Our eco-friendly packaging protects dry foods while being fully compostable and leaves no microplastics behind.
Rethinking How Food Is Packaged for a Greener Future Greener Future
Conventional plastic-based food packaging generates significant carbon emissions during production and disposal, contributing to climate change and environmental degradation.
The EU is tightening regulations on single-use and hard-to-recycle plastics through different directives. Non-compliant food brands risk fines, sales restrictions, and limited access to European markets.
Plastic packaging can break down into microplastics that contaminate soil and water, threatening ecosystems and posing long-term risks to human health.
Some bio-based packaging use edible crops, potentially competing with the food supply. Food brands need packaging materials that do not compromise global food security.
Fossil-based plastics deplete finite materials and generate waste that remains in the environment for decades.
Sustainable Packaging Trends Shaping the Food Industry
Plastic-Free and Minimal-Waste Solutions
- Food brands are increasingly adopting bio-based and compostable materials as alternatives to petroleum plastics.
- These solutions cut waste and help companies achieve sustainability targets.
- They also reduce environmental impact while strengthening brand responsibility.
Monomaterial and Recyclable Packaging
- Single-material formats are gaining traction in the food sector as they simplify sorting and recycling.
- These formats are compliant to new regulatory requirements and are compatible with existing recycling systems.
- Using a single material also makes recycling more efficient and lowers the packaging’s ecological footprint.
Refill and Reuse Systems
- Refillable formats are being widely adopted to reduce single-use plastic waste.
- Even luxury brands are designing products with durable, reusable containers.
- Some companies have introduced take-back programs, encouraging consumers to return empty packaging for reuse or proper recycling.
Adoption of Bio-Plastics and Plant-Based Materials
- Single-material formats are gaining traction in the beauty industry.
- Mono-materials (PET, PE, PP) simplify sorting and recycling compared to mixed-material designs.
- The industry is also advancing “bottle-to-bottle” closed-loop recycling, where used containers are collected, processed, and remade into new ones.
Adoption of Bio-Plastics and Plant-Based Materials
- Bio-plastics derived from sugarcane or corn help reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
- Innovative blends using materials such as rice husks or scallop shells are also emerging in the market.
- These innovations appeal to eco-conscious consumers seeking sustainable choices.
Evolving Regulations on Food Packaging
- Stricter EU and global rules on single-use and non-recyclable plastics are reshaping the food industry.
- Compliance pressures are driving companies to rethink material choices.
