Finnish company Huhtamaki has launched a new thermoformed food packaging solution made from recycled PET (rPET).
The salad packs, which are designed to be film-sealed with a clip lid, are made from plastic which contains between 40% and 70% post-consumer rPET.
The oval pack has also been designed to utilise shelf space, while minimalising transportation and warehousing costs.
Huhtamaki general manager of sales for UK consumer goods Andrew Lea says the company is committed to using renewable resources in its products where possible.
"As households in the UK increasingly have access to local bottle collection services and additional reprocessing capacity has come on stream we believe we can start shifting mote and more products to sustainable rPET," he says.
