Takeaways have come under considerable pressure to stop using their traditional takeaway pot materials, and start using less harmful products for their containers. <\/p>\n
The traditional type of takeaway container, which is made from Polystyrene or polyurethane mixes, is not environmentally friendly, and cannot be degraded naturally. Not only do these old containers fill bins and rubbish tips, they also litter the countryside, and can cause harm to animals as well as making parks and pathways look unattractive. Choosing to use different types of materials for takeaway sandwich containers can help the environment, and may still save you money.<\/p>\n
Using recycled materials is one of the most efficient ways to create takeaway sandwich containers without causing damage, but there are still lots of products available that are not recyclable and this means that there is still a chance that these product will become litter of some kind.\u00a0 Recycling products is a way to save the environment, and many cafe owners and snack shops offer this alternative to polystyrene.<\/p>\n
Cardboard and paper are other ways to provide a sandwich container which is solid and yet is also bio-degradable. Recycled packaging is available, but many sandwich sellers choose to use non-recycled paper, as it is often more comfortable to touch and can take print more easily. If you are offering a range of deli wraps, then you might want to consider using grease proof paper boxes, which protect the wrap and keep it secure while still providing a bio-degradable product at the end of the meal. There are also a range of boxes which resemble pizza boxes, and which are lifted up to show the sandwich in a single-layer form (traditional boxes have the sandwich cut into triangles and then paired into two layers). This type of sandwich container is popular for serving non-traditional breads such as ciabatta or French bread.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
