Parkside has renewed its successful partnership with crisp artisans Two Farmers to produce compostable crisp packets for Colicci, a premium coffee shop operator with over 40 sites across London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new project sees Parkside\u2019s groundbreaking compostable material used to create packaging for three flavours of crisps produced by Two Farmers. The crisps \u2013 available now in Lightly Salted, Cheese and Onion, and Salt and Cider Vinegar flavours \u2013 are on sale at Colicci restaurants, cafes, and kiosks. Once used, the empty packs can be disposed of in domestic waste streams where local authorities allow, and they will break down within 12 weeks in an industrial composting facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ian McManus, Sales Account Manager at Parkside, welcomed the launch, saying, \u201cThe most successful and rewarding partnerships are always the ones where all parties share the same core business values. Two Farmers and Colicci are both leading by example when it comes to sustainability, and so are we, making this project a pleasure to work on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a project that proves sustainability doesn\u2019t have to mean compromising on pack performance or eye-catching aesthetics. In fact, proactively pursuing solutions that minimise your impact on the environment can enhance brand narratives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The launch marks the latest collaboration between Parkside and Two Farmers, with the two companies striking up a successful partnership to produce a number of sustainable crisp packet solutions over recent years. The new packaging uses an advanced triplex configuration of Parkside\u2019s compostable material, combining end-of-life benefits with strong barrier properties while providing a highly printable surface that enables the production of vivid visual designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This material \u2013 made from renewable feedstock to reduce reliance on petrochemical plastic – is independently accredited as compostable according to international standards, supporting Two Farmers\u2019 broader sustainability goals. The crisp producer recently invested in a granulator enabling it to break down compostable crisp packets into fragments. These are combined with production waste and fed into an on-site anaerobic digestion system to generate renewable energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Colicci sites can be found at some of London\u2019s busiest and most famous tourist spots, meaning consumers can enjoy the new crisps at locations including Green Park, Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, and overlooking Buckingham Palace in St James\u2019s Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
