To keep the planet turning, let's keep the plastic journey going ♻️

On Global Recycling Day a question often asked is ‘why do we use plastic packs for prepared fruit?’

Our team at PrepWorld have extensively researched and evaluated various packaging formats. Our goal is to deliver great tasting, undamaged fruit from field to home, as fresh as possible, for as long as possible.

We've found that plastic currently provides the best solution.

As such, we use recycled PET (RPET) wherever possible, the amount of RPET can vary from pack to pack but we always aim is to use the maximum amount of RPET possible.

Moreover our packs are 100% recyclable, so where facilities exist, we encourage the use of recycling facilities available locally to ensure the plastic goes back into the system, so that it can be used again to make the next pack as part of our circular economy.

We know plastic has its problems, from consumer perceptions to limited recycling facilities, which is why we continue to monitor innovations and insights, so that we are ready to react to ever-changing opportunities.
