A Sweeter Outcome
The push for sustainable packaging has been total market led –overthe past year we have frequently been asked for a sustainable packaging option. ‘Eco’packaging is not easy to find, and the choices are limited. We are currently working with two types of ‘Eco’packaging: individual pots and flexible film. The Eco pots have been used in the catering industry for some time and we identified them as being a great solution for filling with sweets and branding with a paper label. We launched the Eco pots in the summer and our demand outstripped the UK supply very quickly. We are now buying directly from the factory. They are described as 100% plastic free and they are made from plant fibre.
