Why reusable food packaging?

The rollout of legislation like the EU’s SUP Directive is pushing governments towards circular economies that include replacing disposables for reusables in various contexts like on-site consumption. Does this spell the end of disposable food packaging?

Definitely not. In a lot of consumer contexts, disposables are and will remain the best option especially when a reusable gets lost or stolen after fewer than five uses. In fact, the amount of feasible reuses is key in determining whether reusable packaging is more sustainable in a given context compared to disposables.

The major difference between the two systems goes beyond the product itself in that a disposable is thrown away after a single use, whereas reusables are not. Therefore implementing a reusable system requires different handling processes to ensure multiple reuses. Verive 360 supports you in this changeover, making the switch to reusables as simple and efficient as possible.
