WHAT ARE THE MOST CONCERNS ABOUT FOOD PACKAGING?
By interviewing a number of restaurant owners in Montreal, Ontario, Alberta & Manitoba, we understand the Disadvantages of Eco-friendly food packaging is mainly on:
- Higher inventories costs compared to plastic.
- Lower resistance, not meet the performance food-based requirements like: melting, soggy, none microwavable or not freezer safe.
- There’s no substitute or alternative for some types of packaging.
In reality, most of our takeaway food containers and/or Eco friendly food packaging are leak-proof, grease-resistant, lightweight, microwavable & freezer-safe.

HOW DOES ECO-FRIENDLY FOOD PACKAGING WORK?
Food is purely organic waste, the ultimate compostable material. But much of the packaging of food products is not. It’s shocking to consider that 63% of solid waste produced in the US comes solely from packaging. And this figure continues to rise.
By switching to biodegradable plastic packaging, the food industry can leverage this massive source of waste and re-direct it to compost, cultivating nutrient rich soil to support farming to grow more food. Instead of damaging the environment, biodegradable food packaging can become part of a vital circular system that both eliminates waste and boosts food production.
DO CUSTOMERS CARE ABOUT ECO-FRIENDLY PACKAGING?
According to 2022 Global Buying Green Report from Trivium Packaging, based on a survey of more than 15,000 consumers across Europe, North America, and South America on their values & behaviours related to sustainable packaging:
- 86% of consumers among younger generations (<45) showed a willingness to pay more for sustainable packaging.
- 57% of consumers are "less likely" to buy products in harmful packaging.
- 74% of consumers said they would be interested in buying products that come in refillable packaging.
- 68% of consumers have chosen a product in the last six months based on its sustainability credentials.
In sum, consumers hate packaging, especially materials that end up in landfills, so why would your business not seek green alternatives?
HOW ECO FRIENDLY PACKAGING AFFECT YOUR BRAND?
As more people become environmentally conscious, they are constantly seeking out ways to make a positive impact on the environment. As a result, when you switch to green packaging, it can drastically improve your brand.
In a nut shell when you continue to use plastic packaging, it can actually do even more harm and can destroy your company’s image. Interested in finding out why? Be sure to read our blog post!
SINGLE-USE PLASTICS PROHIBITS REGULATIONS | BANNING OF 6 TYPES
On June 22, 2022, the Government of Canada published the Single-use Plastics Prohibition Regulations (the Regulations), in the Canada Gazette, Part II.
The Regulations prohibit the manufacture, import, sale and eventually export of 6 categories of single-use plastic (SUP) items, include:
#1. Single-use plastic checkout bags;
#2. Single-use plastic cutlery;
#3. Single-use plastic foodservice ware;
#4. Single-use plastic ring beers;
#5. Single-use plastic stir sticks;
$6. Single-use plastic straws
To help businesses and organizations transition away from these products, the Government of Canada has developed this guidance document outlining important considerations to take into account when selecting alternative products or systems that prevent plastic pollution and help Canada transition to a circular economy.
