The Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) has released the names of the five finalists in the Australia-New Zealand Save Food Packaging Awards.
Developed in conjunction with the World Packaging Organisation (WPO), these awards recognise companies that are developing innovative and sustainable packaging which minimises food losses and food waste, extends shelf life, and improves the supply of food.
The finalists are as follows:
Botanical Food Company for Gourmet Garden Herbs & Spices
DON KRC for Cryovac Darfresh Vacuum Skin Packaging
HealthShare NSW for My Food Choice
Naber Plastics for SEALPAC’s EasyLid packaging system
SPC Ardmona for SPC ProVital Easy-Open Portion Control Fruit Cup
A key component of the Save Food Packaging Awards is to raise the profile of the critical role of packaging in reducing food waste – and therefore the product’s overall environmental impact.
Winners will be announced at the 2016 AIP National Conference Dinner on 1 June at the Crown Promenade, Melbourne.
