23 Aug 2023 --- Graphic Packaging International (GPI) has partnered with Picadeli to develop a new range of plastic-free paperboard lids for its paper-based salad bowls. The new lids are recyclable in household paper waste streams and are made from renewable plant-based fiber sourced from sustainably managed forests. Through GPI’s paperboard lids, Picadeli can replace its plastic lids line, eliminating 250 metric tons of plastic annually from its supply chain. The innovation offers a secure snap closure system that represents an upgrade from Picadeli’s previous solution. The healthy eating outlet can now offer a salad bowl and lid combination that is plastic-free and offers “excellent” functionality, meeting consumers’ demands.
