Fresh Produce Now Eligible for Certified Compostable Label through Partnership Between TIPA and Bio4Pack

In the ongoing quest for sustainable packaging solutions, two companies, GreenLicks and TIPA, are making significant strides.

GreenLicks, a yet-to-be-named company, has unveiled its new line of ice cream cups. These innovative cups are crafted from 'responsibly sourced' certified paperboard and boast a bio-based material coating, marking a shift from fossil-based plastics as part of Huhtamaki's sustainability efforts.

Meanwhile, TIPA, a leader in sustainable packaging, has introduced a home compostable high-barrier film for laminated savoury snack and crisp packaging. This film, available globally, pairs perfectly with cellulose or paper layers to create one of the market's thinnest 2-ply home compostable solutions for crisps, chips, and snacks.

The sustainability of these packaging solutions doesn't compromise durability. GreenLicks' ice cream cups are designed to be home and industrially compostable and recyclable, while TIPA's film and labels demonstrate excellent resistance to moisture, maintaining flexibility even in cold and moist conditions.

The labels, suitable for both machine and hand application techniques, are certified as food-safe for direct food application. They also offer a strong adherence on various produce without leaving a residue, thanks to the pressure-sensitive adhesive.

TIPA and Bio4Pack have also launched a new 'certified home compostable' label for fresh produce, ensuring a clear and recognisable eco-friendly label for consumers.

As the world moves towards stricter packaging sustainability regulations, with the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation in 2025 being a hot topic, these innovations are timely and significant. Details on the key to increasing the use of reusable packaging in supermarkets, as well as information on how top brands are progressing on packaging sustainability, are readily available.

For those interested in understanding the global packaging sustainability regulation in 2025, an ultimate guide is at your disposal. With these sustainable packaging solutions and resources, the future of eco-friendly packaging looks promising.
