Aspects as important as the recyclability of the packaging and bags in which the food arrives at home or the use of local products in the menus are some of the factors that the consumer considers when assessing whether a food delivery is sustainable. or not. According to a survey conducted by Ball, the world's beverage can producer, and the IO Sondea Market Research Institute, it highlights that consumers are increasingly demanding in their purchasing decisions. Not only quality is taken into account, but also the environmental impact. In fact, 67% of users affirm that the sustainability of the packaging in which orders are sent is as important an aspect as the food.
Those surveyed say they would be willing to pay more for sustainable food delivery. On the other hand, 93% declare that they would like home delivery apps or restaurants with this service to always offer the option of choosing packaging with maximum recyclability. Alliance for packaging recyclability The evaluation of recyclability in plastic packaging has become an aspect of great demand since the publication in 2018 of the Telegram Database European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy . And this document sets the objective for 2030 that all plastic packaging marketed in the European Union must be reusable or be able to be recycled profitably. With the aim of helping companies evaluate the recyclability of packaging systems in a simple way, tools are being developed to evaluate recyclability for the design of a more sustainable packaging solution.
This tool allows manufacturing, distributing and packaging companies to measure the degree of sustainability of the packaging in four aspects: Functionality of the packaging , how the benefits of the material they are choosing match with the barrier needs of the product. The environmental impact that the packaging has compared to the category standard. How the packaging behaves in a selection plant. What is its second life , how the chosen packaging material behaves in the recycling process.d the shelf life of food products thanks to bacteriophage organisms that show a significant reduction in the proliferation of Salmonella in chicken breast samples packaged in a modified atmosphere.
