Manufactured at the company’s UK factory, the pots meet the On-Pack Recycling Label (OPRL) recyclability guidelines for the coming years.

They also use materials certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
Colpac stated that the multi-food pots are available in four different sizes, ranging from 470ml to 1,300ml.
They are designed to act as versatile food-to-go packaging solutions that can be used to serve a broad variety of dishes, from salads to hot ‘food-to-go’ products.

By GlobalDataA maximum of 7% plastic is used in the bases of the pots, which have a polyethylene (PE) coating that creates a barrier to moisture and grease.
Each pot has a large surface area and can be fitted with a clear, safe, anti-mist lid that makes the product visible.
The multi-food pots provide printed kraft and natural kraft options for customers, both of which can be provided using FSC materials.
The lids are made from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) and have more than double the 30% recycled content threshold outlined in the UK’s plastic packaging tax.
Colpac Marketing and Product head Kate Berry said: “With the launch of our new multi-food pots, we have created a solution that is quality-led and offers a secure supply chain.
“The new natural kraft range gives excellent on-shelf presence, appealing to environmentally driven consumers, and most importantly is manufactured in the UK.”
The natural kraft range will be sold separately from the rPET lids, providing the option to heat-seal and label the bases.
In March this year, Colpac developed a sustainable packaging and sealing machinery solution for pet food brand Hug Pet Foods.
