Recent Developments
- In January 2024, SEE (legally the Sealed Air Corporation), global packaging solutions provider has created the first biobased, industrial compostable tray for protein packaging that has been successfully tested to satisfy the requirements of current food processing equipment as part of its ongoing efforts to create packaging materials that satisfy its clients' sustainability goals. The USDA-certified biobased, food-contact grade resin used to make SEE's new CRYOVAC" brand biodegradable overwrap tray has a 54% biobased content and is chemically generated from sustainable wood cellulose. The tray was developed as an alternative to those constructed of expanded polystyrene (EPS), which are typically used to package fresh chicken and red meat for customer purchase but are neither recyclable nor biodegradable. It will decompose into organic material without leaving any harmful residue behind.
- In October 2024, Yangi, a company renowned for its creative renewable packaging, unveiled its most recent creation, a food tray made of fiber that will take the place of traditional plastic trays in the food industry. Yang's multipurpose tray meets the increasing need for environmentally friendly products in the food business by providing a sustainable packaging choice for ready meals, meat trays, and takeout.
