MUMBAI: Can sustainable packaging be sleek, scalable and safe enough to handle food? ITC thinks so. With its new Filo Series, the Indian conglomerate is rolling out a plastic-free, compostable packaging solution aimed at businesses ready to clean up their act — and their supply chains.
Launched with a slick digital campaign, the Filo Series is made from biodegradable, food-grade paperboard and is designed to withstand grease, moisture and scrutiny — all while staying recyclable and planet-friendly. Think pizza boxes without the guilt and pastry trays that don’t cost the earth.
Part of the paperboards and specialty papers division, the innovation reinforces ITC’s broader circular economy push. Already plastic-neutral for four years, the company is now stepping up its commitment with solutions like Filo and a new moulded fibre unit in Madhya Pradesh.
Filo doesn’t just check eco boxes — it ticks business ones too. It promises food safety, functionality and scalability, aimed at replacing single-use plastics across FMCG and food delivery segments. Certified as both biodegradable and recyclable, it’s the kind of packaging that could future-proof an industry under increasing regulatory and consumer pressure.
