Food Packaging

Over the years we have been in business (established 2003), food packaging has become much more sophisticated and eco friendly, driven by a desire from within to improve eco credentials of the food to go industry and driven by customer demand.

Where possible, we have marked whether the packaging materials are recyclable, compostable (industrial / home) and biodegradable. We were the first on-line food packaging retailer to upload recycling properties / logos on our range of food packaging.

The food packaging range will be changing considerably with UK government introduced legislation particularly around single use plastics.

We have broadly split our food packaging supplies into three categories:

• Hot Food take away packaging for on the go outlets and event catering
• Cold Food Packaging for sandwiches, salads and other deli and bakery takeout food
• Packaging for small independent food manufacturers

If you require any help at all, please contact us. We also offer a samples service so you can see, feel and test packaging before buying from us.

We stock a wide range of food packaging labels, essential for displaying legal information like ingredients and allergies for Natasha's Law. For customers interested in bespoke packaging labels / branding, we also offer a custom labelling service. Pre-designed off the shelf labels are held in stock for customers looking for a non-branded design.

The packaging we supply is manufactured from a wide range of materials; we were also the first website to include product details and correct disposal methods.

• Cardboard / paper, much is compostable and all can be recycled
• Bagasse - sugar beet / plant based, it can be commercially composted
• PLA Plastic, which is made from plants
• Polypropylene & PVC Plastic, all of which can be easily recycled but may be legislated against by the end of 2023
• PET plastic that can be recycled kerbside along with other domestic waste and re-used
• EPS Styrofoam Plastic, soon to phased out across the UK as it cannot be recycled

Please read our blog on Recycling Food Packaging.

We can supply custom printed food packaging services for almost all of our range available on-line. If you supply your logo or design, we can arrange for bespoke printing and direct delivery of our individual requirements. Please contact us with your ideas and we will find a quote from one of our partners and minimum order quantities.

Custom printing forms an overall plan of marketing your product both in store with premium presentation and externally on the move.

There are as many types of food boxes as there are types of food. They come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and colours, just like the food they protect. A popular option is plastic trays for customer takeaway or delivery. These sturdy containers make sure the product gets to the client as if they were eating right there in your restaurant. When you're deciding on food packaging supplies, you know presentation is as important as the dish itself.

Whatever, your requirements, please browse around our site or contact us for assistance.
