Sandwich Packaging in the UK and new product

25th October 2018 By AndyW

Tri cut sandwich packaging kitSandwiches are the daily staple of many a UK lunch, whether made at home or purchased from on the go take away outlets.  We buy an estimated  3.5 billion sandwiches ever year, and 325,000 people work in the sandwich / food to go market. The average price paid is apparently £2.27!

Sandwich packaging has various objectives :

  • Deliver the sandwich to the customer in perfect condition
  • Protection whilst in transit
  • Food and package labelling and regulatory information

According to the FPA, the UK labelling requirements by law for your sandwiches are as follows:

  • Name of the food
  • Use by date
  • List of ingredients
  • Nutritional information
  • Allergy information
  • Storage guidance (recent Pret allergen case)
  • Name and address of manufacturer / packer / seller

The sandwich segment of the food to go market is so busy, there is even a sandwich trade association and annual awards!

We currently sell a wide range of sandwich packaging and all can be found on the buy on-line section of our web site. This includes traditional push shut hinged sandwich packaging, film sealable open plastic packaging and biodegradable cardboard based sandwich packaging.

We will soon be launching a new, smaller, lightweight sandwich packaging for standard, deep fill and triple fillings –  the tri-cut sandwich.  The video below shows how simple it is to use –  its card inner is made from recyclable plastic and is compostable.  The presentation for retail packaging is crystal clear and accommodates a custom label for information purposes. We will post on our social media accounts when it is available to buy on our web site.
