We believe in offering sustainable solutions that protect the planet while ensuring the freshness and quality of your fruits and vegetables. With our wide range of compostable packaging options, including our innovative BioPak sugarcane pulp produce trays, you can make a positive impact on the environment without compromising on functionality.
At Planet Friendly Packaging, we understand the importance of choosing the right packaging for your fresh produce. Our 500g and 1kg produce trays, made from sugarcane pulp, are the perfect alternative to plastic berry baskets. Specifically designed for delicate strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, these trays provide excellent protection and ventilation, keeping your fruits in optimal condition.
Say goodbye to those traditional styrofoam produce trays! Our 5x5", 6x5", 7x5", 8x5", and 1kg trays offer a sustainable replacement for the typical styrofoam trays commonly used for vegetables. Crafted from responsibly-sourced sugarcane pulp, these trays are completely plastic-free and contribute to the reduction of waste in landfills.
Not all produce trays and packaging are created equal, and we pride ourselves on offering a superior alternative to conventional options. Traditional polystyrene trays are often made from fossil fuels or paper derived from old-growth forests. Unfortunately, after their short useful life, these trays end up in landfills, where they release harmful greenhouse gases during the slow decomposition process.
Our eco-friendly BioPak produce packaging is made from rapidly-renewable sugarcane pulp, which is a by-product of the sugar refining industry. By utilising this waste by-product, BioPak reduce the need for burning, making their packaging even more environmentally friendly. Our BioPak sugarcane pulp trays are the first of their kind to be certified as home compostable, meeting the rigorous Australian AS5810 standards. Furthermore, they can be recycled in the paper recycling stream if not contaminated with food.
Did you know that composting food packaging can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions? By composting our BioPak certified compostable packaging, you contribute to returning valuable nutrients to the earth and improving soil quality. Additionally, in some cases, composting can even help lower your waste management costs.
Join the league of industry-leading food producers and farmers who have made a sustainable switch to our packaging, leaving single-use plastics behind. These visionary businesses have recognised the importance of adopting environmentally friendly practices and have chosen our compostable packaging to preserve the freshness of their produce while minimising their ecological footprint.
