Berry launches reusable tableware range for foodservice industry
Berry Global launched its reusable tableware range to provide more sustainable packaging solutions to foodservice industry.
The launch of new range is a response to mounting legislative in foodservice industry, such as the Anti-Waste Law for Circular Economy law (AGEC) in France, which mandates that restaurants and other establishments with seating for more than 20 guests must offer reusable tableware.
Berry launched reusable tableware range for foodservice industry.
The new range includes bowls and lids made of high-quality polypropylene (PP). They are safe for food contact and easy to recycle. Their sturdy construction provides the durability required to endure an optimal number of wash cycles in an industrial dishwasher, allowing for easy cleaning and high hygiene standards.
A matte outside surface structure allows the bowls to resist scratches, and a hygienic smooth inside surface minimizes the risk of bacteria growth. The range also allows in-mold labelling, which enables both bowls and lids to be used for branding.
The bowls and lids support efficient transportation, storage, and on-site operations with inside stacking ribs and an easy-to-handle design. Nevertheless, bowls and lids can be used interchangeably, and the lids double as plates, offering maximum flexibility.
To help with inventory management and tracking of reuse cycles, each bowl offers space for a QR code, barcode, Digimarc, or an RFID chip with a unique code. An RFID chip can also be embedded into each lid.
“Our new reusable tableware range will help minimize waste and reduce the use of virgin resources while offering functionality, durability, and legislative compliance,” concluded Josef Björck, VP of Food Service, Berry Superfos.
