Biodegradable Food Tubs FAQs

What’s the difference between biodegradable, compostable and recyclable?

Biodegradable food packaging will break down quicker than compostable and recyclable materials. Biodegradable plastics can break down into microplastics which are thought to be damaging if they end up in the ocean, however they are still thought to be a better alternative to plastic. If something is biodegradable, given the right conditions it will eventually break down to its basic components and blend into the earth.

Compostable food packaging means that the packaging will break down into its original components and shouldn’t be any harm to the environment whatsoever. It won’t have the same barrier properties as plastic, for example, if a vacuum seal is required to keep the product fresh. Compostable food packaging is made, disposed of and breaks down in a way that is kinder to the environment than plastic.

Recyclable food packaging can be processed and used over and over again. Recyclable materials include paper, glass, metal and certain types of plastic. Most packaging is usually recyclable, but it’s important to sort and separate it into correct bins.

What are the benefits of biodegradable food tubs?

By choosing biodegradable food tubs, you can give your customers the best experience when eating your food without increasing your carbon footprint. Since biodegradable materials are made from recycled materials instead of chemicals and plastics, they are hugely better for the environment. This also means there are no harmful plastics in there.

Biodegradable food tubs are also convenient for disposal as they don’t require as many resources to break down the packaging after use.

Why is biodegradable food packaging important?

As climate change is becoming an important issue all around the world, it’s important that companies start doing their part. Around 100 million tonnes of food is wasted annually in the EU which leads to huge environmental impacts. Shifting to biodegradable food packaging means you won’t lose out on the quality of your food containers and are also helping to reduce your carbon footprint.
