Sustainable, multi-purpose takeaway container alternative set to revolutionise the disposable packaging industry
During these unprecedented times, restaurants, delicatessens and coffee shops alike are now finding new ways to provide delivered food to customers. Many businesses are now offering their services as a takeaway option where they might not have been before. This now comes with a new set of challenges.
An aluminium and plastic tray alternative that is ovenable, microwaveable and eco friendly
Existing takeaway containers all have at least one draw-back. Aluminium trays cannot be microwaved and single use plastic containers cannot be used in the oven. Up until now, many alternatives were leaky, flimsy and unreliable. Not forgetting the environmental impact of single use items, the uncertainty of if they could - or would - be properly recycled and whether they’re compostable or not.
We are now accelerating the development of a real, practical alternative to aluminium and plastic containers that we hope to bring to market very soon.
Developing a new way for takeaways and restaurants to serve their food, sustainably
We are working with our suppliers on a takeaway tray (with integrated lid) that is completely universal. Ours is freezable, microwaveable and oven-proof. It has leak proof corners and a strong enough lid to allow stacking for delivery.
Rectangular and similar in size and cubic volume (700cc) to the ubiquitous aluminium ‘size6a’ tray or polyprop container, this new, unique and innovative takeaway packaging is comparable in price to other compostable takeaway containers at c£32 per 250.
Oh, ours is 100% plastic free and certified to the hilt: EUTR and PEFC sustainably sourced, TUV OK home compostable and if you can't do that - clean it and pop it in your recycling (yes, certified to do that too).
