Elliott’s have teamed up with Industry leading food packaging supplier BioPak who’s company ethos and mission is ‘Compostable packaging that puts the planet first’.
We are excited to share with our customers this new collaboration which not only gives our customers greener purchasing options but also provides well designed and manufactured products at great value.
Biopak have issued the following statement on their website introducing themselves to our customers
"At our core, we exist to create sustainable packaging that puts the planet first. Since we began in 2006, we've become a globally recognised brand. Businesses of all sizes leverage the BioPak brand to win the hearts of conscious consumers.
But we're far from done. We're committed to constant research and development to find better, more sustainable ways of doing things.
We have a whole team dedicated to staying at the forefront of technology, making sure we're leading the charge with the best packaging solutions and are staying ahead of plastic bans and laws (in fact, we are regularly in discussion with governments in relation to regulations).
What does all this mean for you? You'll be choosing the most sustainable packaging solution currently on the market, while also building credibility and future-proofing your business.
A world without waste.
Disruptive at our core, BioPak was born from necessity. As a solution to a problem. Our founders, Richard Fine and Gary Smith, recognised the alarming stats: Over 91% of plastics produced aren’t recycled (source). That leaves the vast majority of plastic accumulating in landfill or the natural environment, which eventually winds up in the ocean.
It became clear the traditional ‘take, make, waste’ model was broken. The world needed compostable foodservice packaging made from sustainably sourced renewable materials – and fast.
So with a vision to make a real impact, BioPak began in 2006. A time when ‘sustainability’ was still an out-there and far-flung concept. But what began as a grassroots initiative is now a leader in environmentally sustainable packaging manufacturing.
Today, we’re globally recognised and embraced by distributors and customers throughout Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Europe and Singapore. Each year we continue to lead the way toward a truly circular economy and move closer to our mission of a world without waste."
We’re committed to:
A carbon reduction plan, reinvesting profits toward end-of-life composting solutions.
Phasing out PFAS from the remainder of our plant fibre range.
Moving FSC™ certified paper across to our BioCup range.
Growing our range of home compostable aqueous solutions.
Expanding to new markets with a Hong Kong launch at the end of 2023.
Partnered with Pickler, an environmental impact calculation software for packaging dedicated to making sustainable decision-making as easy as possible. There are four key impact categories that contribute to overall ‘eco-cost': carbon footprint, impact on biodiversity, impact on human health, and impact on material scarcity.
Leading the charge with next-generation marine degradable solutions. We have launched a range of PHA cups made without any fossil-based materials and certified home compostable (AS5810) and marine biodegradable.
