We look at how supermarkets and retailers are making their Easter packaging more sustainable. Tuck in!
By now your Easter egg haul is very likely to be down to single figures. After a long bank holiday weekend of exercise/TV (delete according to honesty) and chocolate, you are now left with a series of elaborate packages to recycle.
Fortunately, it’s likely that your Easter egg packaging will be close to 100% recyclable since many supermarkets and retailers have spent a great deal of time reducing the amount of single-use plastic you have to get through to reach the egg inside. Where once you had to wrestle with at least three levels of packaging to ensure your egg remains unbroken, now manufacturers have developed better, more sustainable ways to protect their ovoid products.
