GOUSTO, a U.K.-based subscription meal kit company, is trialing a “world-first” edible packaging solution to help improve the environmental credentials in its recipe boxes. 

Kellogg’s is trialing fully recyclable packaging for its boxes of Corn Flakes, replacing the plastic liner for paper. The food giant has said it would prefer plastic liners to be accepted in curbside recycling, but the trial of the paper alternative in a small number of Tesco stores from January “ensures we have an alternative."

Shiru's patent-pending discovery platform combines ML and biofermentation to produce plant-based alternatives to eggs, meat, dairy and gelatin—using a fraction of the land, water and energy of their animal alternatives.

Rather than waste meat byproducts and misshapen produce, “ugly” foods are finding a home as nutrient-rich ingredients in pet food.

Plant-based foods are ubiquitous in the market today, and at the core of that category is plant-based meats. 

Aroma is a bottle made of 100% recycled clear PET, which is completely recyclable and designed by rethinking the manufacturing system, a sustainable and imaginative idea, a unique concept that meets both the demands of brands in terms of marketing, and communication and the needs of the company in terms of production, investment and sustainability.

To address the issue of full recyclability of pouches, the three companies have jointly developed a turnkey solution that not only enables 100% recyclability of hot-fill pouches with its new mono-polymer structure but also the spout caps, thus, bringing many ecologically responsible brands closer to reaching their sustainability goals.
