We are thrilled to announce that our BIOPAP® EASY GENIUS Compostable Meal Tray has been shortlisted in the Best Environmentally Sustainable Packaging category at the Irish Foodservice Supplier Award. This recognition highlights the sustainable innovation engineered and patented by BIOPAP®.
Addressing Key Environmental Challenges in Foodservice
The food service sector faces significant environmental challenges that require urgent attention:
- Reducing carbon emissions
- Minimizing food waste
- Eliminating single-use plastics
- Managing water consumption
BIOPAP® solutions are designed to tackle all these challenges head-on. Our LCA Cradle to Grave assessment reveals a remarkable 66% reduction in the carbon footprint of BIOPAP® food trays when compared to traditional PP or CPET containers—significantly reducing CO2 emissions in catering operations.
Sustainable Materials and Certifications
Made from renewable cellulose sourced from responsibly managed forests certified under the PEFC scheme, BIOPAP® food trays are not only eco-friendly but also #compostable. Certified under EN 13432 CIC, with on-field disintegration testing, our trays also carry OK Compost Home and BPI certifications.
At the end of service, no washing, no water, no detergent is needed. Simply dispose of the food remnants and trays together, where they will break down into high-quality compost—supporting agricultural sustainability and reducing reliance on fossil-based fertilizers.
Efficient, Sustainable, and Waste-Reducing
The BIOPAP® EASY GENIUS Compostable Meal Tray optimizes meal preparation and service, ensuring a smoother, more efficient workflow. It is perfectly suited for Cook & Chill, Cook & Serve, and Cook & Freeze processes, allowing for significant reductions in food waste.
