A Shift In Meat Packaging Norms

As food packaging standards evolve, meat processors and retailers are seeking alternatives to expanded polystyrene (EPS) packaging for fresh poultry and red meat. Given limited biodegradability and recyclability of traditional tray formats, the industry is now favoring more environmentally conscious options.

Sustainability that Returns to the Earth

Setting a new sustainability standard, our tray excels not only in its later stages but right from the beginning. Crafted from USDA certified biobased product sourced from renewable cellulose, it composts  alongside food waste, leaving no trace of microplastics behind.
