Responsible and Sustainably Sourced Food Paper Packaging
- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
“Reduce, reuse, recycle” should guide every packaging decision. The waste hierarchy helps businesses make better choices. It also keeps environmental goals clear.
Simple questions should be asked at each stage. What happens to the packaging after first use? Does the material reduce the need for non-sustainable options? Can it be recycled in the country where it is used? Can the business reuse it? Can the customer reuse it at home? If recycling is not possible, will it break down safely?
Clear answers help ensure packaging remains practical and responsible.
- Versatility
Paper packaging is often overlooked when strong performance is needed. Many people still think paper is weak or easily damaged. This is no longer true.
Food Paper designs paper packaging for real working conditions. These products perform well across different temperatures. They are strong and reliable in daily use. They also reduce the need for oils and fats. This helps products stay fresh for longer.
- Sustainable
Paper is not always sustainable. The source of the material matters.
Responsible manufacturers use paper from managed forests. These forests are certified and responsibly run.
Food Paper uses natural cellulose fibres, plant-based materials, or virgin pulp. These materials come from sustainable forestry sources. Certification supports traceability and responsible production.
- Strong
Packaging must protect products during transport and storage. Plastic is often seen as the safest option. This is not always the case.
Food Paper combines corrugated board with coated paper liners. This creates a plastic-free packaging solution. It delivers strength and flexibility. In most cases, the materials are fully recyclable. This approach protects products without increasing environmental impact.
- Food-Friendly
Many consumers are tired of excess plastic around food. Wrapped fruit and layered packaging are common examples.
Paper packaging offers a clear alternative. Food Paper designs products for direct food contact. These products support hygiene and food safety. Visual options are available for bakery, deli, butchery, and cheese counters. For confectionery, paper packaging protects the product and keeps its appearance.
