The tray and its lid are made from natural and renewable raw materials using corrugated cardboard.

Smith said that the project used its Circular Design Metrics approach, meaning the trays are expected to save more than 1,250 tonnes of plastic annually.

In a press statement, Smith said: “Using Circular Design Metrics, we evaluate and tailor a unique solution against a formula of eight set criteria inclusive of recyclability, renewable materials, and supply chain optimisation.”
