Research analyst Lumina Intelligence forecasts 4.1% growth in the food to go industry in their Food to Go Market Report 2023, whilst also highlighting that 66% of consumers claim to be ‘very sustainably conscious’.
Consumers wanting sustainable diets will also want the food they consume to be packaged sustainably. As a carbon neutral packaging supplier rooted in eco-friendly practices, Kite’s range of environmental food packaging products is the perfect partner for vendors selling food on the go.
If in need of versatile containers that will facilitate a mouth-watering shopfront display, Kite’s fully recyclable paper food bowls are secured with a clear lid to allow customers to view contents before buying. Their exterior is manufactured from strong, sustainable kraft paper while the PE-lined interior contains all moisture and grease, maintaining the integrity of the container and keeping food safe from leakages and spillages. Package a variety of foods in these bowls, including salads, noodles, ramen, curries, pasta and rice.
Partner these bowls with Kite’s birchwood cutlery, consisting of forks, knives, dessert spoons and teaspoons. These are compact and lightweight to promote user satisfaction whilst enabling easy storage at the business end. This cutlery is only as durable as is necessary for a single use item, helping to accelerate its composting process in comparison to thicker, sturdier items which would take longer to decompose. Birchwood used in this product is ethically sourced, boasting complete commercial compostability.
Greaseproof paper bags are great for containing food that may transfer grease on to the consumer. Manufactured from lightweight greaseproof material, these bags have an opening at the top to allow easy consumption on the go. One side of the opening is elongated and can be folded over as a temporary covering should food need to be transported within consumers’ bags. These are fully recyclable even if subject to staining.
To complete, Kite’s 100% recyclable paper coffee cups are the ideal container for tea and coffee although they are equally suitable for cold beverages. These double-walled, ergonomic cups offer comfortability, durability and protection to takeaway customers as they go about their day. The double wall corrugation insulates drinks so that customers can enjoy them for longer, doubling up as a protective feature which also keeps their hands safe.
As one of the largest online packaging suppliers, Kite’s range of eco-friendly packaging contains everything a food vendor needs to operate sustainably.
