London Bio Packaging
Company Profile London Bio Packaging is the UK’s leading sustainable foodservice packaging business. Our sustainable products are distributed worldwide. The London Bio Packaging vision is “Delivering sustainability: to add value to our customers and have a positive impact on the planet.” After supplying the London 2012 Olympic Games, we introduced two new brands: Sustain™ and Revive™. Sustain™ packaging is renewable (made from plants that re-grow) and compostable; Revive™ is recycled (made using recycled materials) and recyclable.
Benefits Sustain™ and Revive™ help food and catering businesses in 3 key ways: 1. Reduce their environmental impact. Businesses can use these brands to move towards a circular economy model of using products made from renewable resources and then recycling the materials after use. By using these products, customer will reduce their carbon footprint, virgin resource use and the amount they send to landfill. 2. Make financial savings and meet regulations. By composting and recycling more, businesses’ landfill waste costs can be decreased. In some areas it is now compulsory to use compostable products or to divert food waste from landfill. Sustain™ packaging can help businesses meet these regulations as the products are compostable and can be sent with food waste to composting, anaerobic digestion or biomass energy. 3. Pick what fits their waste management system. Sustain™ suits those looking to compost and deal with food waste; Revive™ is perfect for businesses looking to recycle. Plus, clear markings on the products and labeling at the points of disposal make it easy to put Sustain™ and Revive™ in the relevant bin after use.

StalkMarket
Company Profile StalkMarket offers disposable cups, plates, boxes and cutlery made from rapidly renewable resources such as sugar cane, corn sugars, plant sugars and starches and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified wood pulp. All of our products are certified compostable, and we strongly encourage our customers to find ways to compost our products when they are disposed of. Environmentally-speaking, composting is the best way to dispose of organic material like food waste, and yard trimmings. Can any disposable plate or cup be truly sustainable? In most cases, a reusable container is more environmentally sustainable than a disposable item. But sometimes life requires the convenience of a disposable container. And until we find a better solution, using a disposable product made from a rapidly renewable resource – especially one that would otherwise be a waste product from another process – is better than the traditional petrochemical-based products. The environment continues to be a topic of great interest to governments and consumers everywhere. Many state and city governments are already taking an active role in banning certain types of food packaging that are harmful to the environment and many more will follow. According to a study conducted by Restaurants & Institutions magazine, nearly 83% of consumers surveyed said that environmentally friendly takeout packaging is either very important or somewhat important. More than 71% said that using environmentally friendly plates, to-go containers and utensils is also important. In fact, this is so important to customers that nearly 50% of those surveyed are willing to pay between a 1% to 10% premium to offset the cost. And since StalkMarket products are already priced competitively with less environmentally friendly alternatives, you have a lot to gain and nothing to lose.
