Parkside, a leading manufacturer of sustainable, flexible packaging solutions, is the new packaging partner for the ethical brand, The Good Snack Company, selected to supply certified compostable packaging for its 25g \u201cshot\u201d range of nuts and snacks.<\/p>\n
Dublin-based, The Good Snack Company produces nutritious snacks using simple ingredients and states that it is conscious of its carbon footprint, from cultivation to packing. The nut and snack producer reached out to Parkside, as a specialist in sustainable packaging, to develop a pack that would provide excellent product protection and an environmentally responsible choice.<\/p>\n
The 25g \u2018shot\u2019 product, packed in a vertical filled flow wrap manufactured from Parkside\u2019s Park2Nature\u2122 compostable material, is fully accredited by T\u00dcV Austria for compostability. This independent verification confirms that the packaging completely breaks down in specified conditions and timeframes suitable for both industrial and home composting environments. The packaging provides excellent oxygen and moisture barriers to extend the shelf life of the product, an essential component for keeping nuts and snacks fresh and crunchy, whilst also maintaining optimum flavour.<\/p>\n
The 25g Park2Nature\u2122 packs replace a delisted compostable solution from a previous supplier. The Good Snack Company plan to roll out the new compostable packaging further to incorporate their larger snack packs, currently packed in non-recyclable conventional plastics.<\/p>\n
Matt Henchie, Owner of The Good Snack Company, said, \u201cWe recognise and appreciate Parkside\u2019s expertise in sustainable, flexible packaging. We have worked closely with their customer accounts team, especially Sharon Bryce, who has expertly supported us throughout the product development process. We are very pleased with the result and look forward to developing our larger snack packs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Paul Lenihan, Sales Account Manager at Parkside, commented, \u201cWe have enjoyed collaborating with The Good Snack Company on this innovation. Although a long-term project since March this year, we were confident that Parkside would develop a sustainable solution to fulfil the brief of being environmentally responsible while ensuring outstanding product protection. Small packaging items, like these nut and snacks packs, are particularly suited to our range of compostable solutions because they are too small to recycle but perfect for the home compost bin.\u201d<\/p>\n
Parkside offers a broad range of sustainable solutions, including lightweight, low carbon footprint, recycled content, recyclable monomers, high barrier performance, reuse and refill, renewable and compostable paper and films.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
