Paper Packaging
Constantia FFP have wholeheartedly committed to the development of materials and pack formats that can help to reduce any negative impact on the environment. Our EcoPaper packaging solutions are fully recyclable and collected through existing infrastructure.
There are of course challenges around the use of paper in food packaging, however, Constantia FFP have developed a one-side-coated paper packaging solution that can be heat or cold-sealed and is offered in three barrier grades to suit your product requirements. Our EcoPaper solutions can be collected via the paper recycling stream and are available in reel form or as pre-made bags and pouches.

The Plastic Tax
The plastic packaging tax was implemented by the UK government in April 2022. A tax of £210.82 per metric tonne is now enforced for all plastic packaging components that do not contain at least 30% recycled material.
Constantia FFP’s EcoPaper family of packaging solutions is both exempt from the Plastic Packaging Tax but it also offers a solution that is classified as ‘Recycle’ by OPRL and can be collected in the paper waste stream.
