The Sherwood Group has worked closely with Chilango, a UK based Mexican restaurant chain, to find a replacement for its bagasse trays and plastic lids, which were used to serve burritos, tacos, salads and nachos. Chilango was looking for a more robust, vibrant and iconic alternative for its packaging, which would enable them to tell their brand story, whilst being environmentally friendly, functional and maintain the food’s temperature during delivery. The company have unveiled a new, eco friendly packaging containing a sustainable barrier coating – Puracoat® – as an alternative to plastic packaging and PET-lined food barrier packaging. Developed by The Sherwood Group, Puracoat® is a water based aqueous coating which, when applied to any food-grade cartonboard, provides grease and moisture resistant properties, while being fully recyclable and biodegradable. “Puracoat®, used in conjunction with a natural, insulating Kraft board product, ensures Chilango products are delivered fresh and appetizingly hot with no unsightly food migration from the carton”. Applied in line at the Sherwood Group’s premises in Nottingham, Puracoat® can reach the maximum oil/grease resistant test of ‘Kit 12’, which has been independently verified by Smithers Pira. Chilango is the first restaurant chain to use Puracoat® for their food packaging; “We are very proud to be one of the first to have a Puracoat® barrier coated product, making our packaging 100% biodegradable and compostable. The move away from plastic is an exciting step for Chilango brand and plays an important role in building our commitment to environmentally friendly practices”, commented Sarah Haynes, Marketing Manager at Chilango, “the way the packaging looks is making everyone feel proud about the brand, and guests have noticed the improvement in environmental credentials on this packaging”.

James Cropper has partnered with one of the luxury beauty market’s most notable names. The collaboration with Coty has elevated the circularity of packaging for Chloé fragrances, with the Chloé Eau de Parfum Rose Naturelle being the latest fragrance launched by the beauty brand to be produced from James Cropper's upcycled box board. Complementing Coty’s Beauty That Lasts strategy, the natural uncoated surface finish of the Rydal Packaging Collection from James Cropper gives the pack a soft understated elegance. Made with 40% reclaimed fibre, the Bright White paper also gives a valuable second life to post-consumer waste and is blended with fresh fibre from sustainable forestry sources to deliver beautiful papers with a strong environmental pedigree. A combination that both keeps materials in use and helps the regeneration of natural systems. This partnership is a true demonstration of what can be achieved with reclaimed fibre. Working in collaboration with Coty, not only have we maintained print performance, but the packaging now tells a circular story. It’s a triumph in terms of fibre blending – something we are passionate about.
