Glass
jars
In the changing world
of nomadic packaging in cardboard box with lid, please give me one of the kings of eco-design. Although
heavier and more fragile, glass jars are simply recyclable and offer an extra
chic that other materials have not yet achieved. Ideal for any form of gourmet
or luxury snacking! The cover will generally be made of metal, which can also
be recycled, despite a significant carbon footprint.
But glass, we also
like it for its transparency which allows a careful inspection of the contents
before the purchase. No nasty surprises here, but large surfaces that you can
decorate at your leisure with labels with your design!
Advantages
- 100% recyclable
- Easy to open and enclosable
- Luxurious
Disadvantages
- More expensive
- Prone to breakage
- More cumbersome on shelves or
during storage
You will choose your
type of nomadic packaging according to your needs. Rather savings? So we put on
the flexible bags. Rather optimal protection? Plastic containers and cardboard
boxes are yours. The environmental impact will lead you to choose flexible bags
as a priority, although recyclable glass and rigid cardboard are also beautiful
in the long term. Do not hesitate to contact our team to assist you in your
choice and help you optimize your design!
Nomadic
packaging facing the challenge of eco-design
Cakes, salads, dishes
in trays, boxes, and cookies simplify every moment of life. Yet, at the same
time, the containers and cutlery add to the 360 kilos of annual waste thrown by
the USA.
Snacking and
innovations
With its healthier
recipes, its shortened lists of ingredients, and its products made in the USA…
The snacking sector is on the rise. This will pave the way for many innovations
for the major industries in this particular market.
And the custom packaging for small business in
all of this? Well, it changes; it gets lighter. The compostable or
biodegradable materials rose as bio-based materials, while efforts tend towards
democratization of recycling. Yet, today, only 65% of cardboard on average is
recycled in our region. I can do better!
Between product
innovation and the improvement of existing ranges, the consumer is torn between
practicalities, pleasure, and respect for the environment. If the efforts are
still timid, at least they merit being their pencil holder, a make-up jar… It
is also through such simple initiatives that the circular economy is being set
up.
The
nomadic packaging of tomorrow
After the rise of fast
food, then qualitative street food… What new concepts will emerge tomorrow?
What is certain is that the nomadic packaging of the future will have
everything to do with food safety and eco-responsibility. As eyes turn again to
local products and the healthy trend, including in the context of snacking,
nomadic packaging will have to gain even more transparency in ecological
materials. And in logos and natural designs to happily accompany the change!
