TO STAY AHEAD OF REGULATIONS AND EXCEED CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS
As the world evolves towards circular economies, more and more consumers are approaching the meat and seafood case with a growing interest in products that boast sustainable processing and packaging, forcing food processors and retailers to think differently about how packaging can improve sustainability.
Plastic taxes, regulatory bans of expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam, sustainability pledges, and consumer pressure will keep sustainability attributes, such as recyclability, biodegradability, and packaging waste top of mind for food processors, retailers and consumers. Regulatory changes and evolving consumer preferences can lead any meat processor or retailer to make packaging decisions too quickly, so it's important to work with someone you trust, stay informed, and make the change that’s right for you.

Meat Packaging Disposal & Environmental Concerns
Environmental Sustainability of Packaging is a Key Concern at the Meat Case
Even though most consumers dispose of their meat packaging by throwing it in the rubbish, concerns over package and food waste continue to rise. Sustainability attributes, such as recyclability, biodegradability and packaging waste are growing areas of interest for food processors, retailers and consumers.

Your Sustainable Packaging Strategy Should Be... Well, Sustainable
And while the definition of “sustainable packaging” can vary greatly depending on individual needs and perspectives, we take a life cycle approach. We believe it is critically important to go beyond the traditional focus on end of life to include all possible impacts of a package, from sourcing and manufacturing through design, use, transportation and recovery.
