Our Packaging
We have replaced nearly all our plastic packaging since the end of 2018 with a revolutionary environmentally friendly packaging.The home compostable netting is an award-winning innovation from Austria.
Sourced from the thinning of sustainably managed beech trees from FSC or PEFC certified forests, the material is made only from beechwood. Considerably less water is needed to produce the netting (through a carbon-neutral processes), resulting in an 80% water saving.
The packaging was tested by Wholegood in 2018. It is now used across nearly all our pre-packed products. As the netting is home-compostable, it can re-enter the food-life cycle within weeks. We have been plastic-free across over 90% of our packaging since the end of 2018. All the punnets we use are also home compostable and made from paper pulp.
