Single-use or reusable? A European LCA challenges common perception that reusable tableware has lower environmental impacts: it does not!

AdminCEE — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 10:41:50 +0000

A new European study carried out by the international firm Ramboll and certified by TÜV (ISO 14040 and 14044 standards) * challenges the common perception that reusable tableware has lower environmental impacts than single-use paper-based packaging.

Indeed, this Life Cycle Analysis shows that single-use paper-based packaging used in Quick Service Restaurants is the best environmental choice .

* (LCA carried out for EPPA – European Paper Packaging Alliance – published January 12, 2021)

A study released by the European Paper Packaging Association (EPPA) reveals that single-use paper-based food and drink packaging used in European quick service restaurants is better for the environment than reusable tableware.

The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has been carried by Ramboll, the independent Danish consultants to the European Commission, and certified by TUV.
The study used current primary data from the paper, packaging and foodservice industries to compare the environmental performance over a year of typical disposable and reusable food and drink containers used in a quick-service restaurant for in-store consumption.

This LCA exhaustively assesses two “systems” – single use and multiple use – with all their impacts, according to multiple criteria and scenarios.

24 different types of articles used in QSR are studied, according to the average need of a restaurant in Europe for in-store consumption.

Current paper-based single-use packaging is compared with a reusable plastic tableware alternative (polypropylene – PP), or with traditional dishes (ceramic, glass, metal and plastic). Different options are studied for washing, which can be carried out on site or outside of the restaurant.

Paper-based packaging has very significantly lower impacts for 5 criteria out of the 9 studied!

The results of reusable dishes are strongly impacted by water consumption and the amount of energy required to wash and dry the products.

The sensitivity analysis shows that the environmental benefits are significant for single-use paper packaging in all the scenarios considered.

Renewable and recyclable, safe and perfectly suited to the needs and constraints of QSR, paper-based packaging remains the solution with the best environmental impact for this mode of consumption.

Earth Cup®, the home compostable paper cup

AdminCEE — Wed, 20 Jan 2021 13:40:10 +0000

Eco-responsible innovation

Earth Cup ® is the first monomaterial paper cup WITHOUT a PE liner, which is recyclable and suitable for home composting.

This patented innovation can be easily recycled in the paper waste stream.

Made in France using European raw materials, the Earth Cup® is produced in accordance with the strictest food quality and safety standards and meets all regulatory requirements, with a lower environmental impact than any other type of cup.

The Earth Cup can simply be sorted with the paper waste, or placed with the bio-waste in the garden compost bin.

Single-use cup, multiple-use fibre !

Circularity

So this is no longer a waste but a resource : its material can be used to make products from recycled fibre, or to produce compost by biodegrading at ambient temperature.

"OK compost HOME" certified : a product that is compostable at home with no additional energy

The aim of composting is to reduce the volume of organic waste through biodegradation, whilst re-using the resource to produce high-quality compost that can be used for agricultural or horticultural purposes.
Home composting is a more difficult and slower process than industrial composting since NO energy is added (ambient temperature).

The OK compost HOME certification identifies products that can simply be added to garden compost at home with biowaste.
With its circular resource-use, home composting cuts down on household waste, by using it to make garden compost.

According to European standards, the “compostability’”of a material includes its biodegradability as well as its capacity to disintegrate into fine, non-toxic particles that enable plant growth.

Paper & board, recycling champions!

Still growing, the European recycling rate for paper and board has reached 72% in 2019

While the consumption of paper and board is decreasing in Europe, the collection of paper for recycling (graphic papers + packaging) has been maintained at high levels.

Sources: ERPC / CEPI

Paper is an exceptional bio-based material: cellulose fibre is not only natural and renewable, but also recyclable several times!

The European Paper Recycling Council confirms that the overall recycling rate of paper in Europe continued to grow in 2019 to reach 72%! Progress continues to reach the target of 74% in 2020.

Angelika Christ, President of the European Paper Recycling Council declares: “The increase in the rate to 72% shows that paper recycling is not only a promise, but is already today a model of circularity and a strong contributor to the European Green Deal ”.

The paper – cardboard is the most recycled packaging material in Europe at 85%!
Fibres can be recycled up to 7 times , to manufacture new packaging.

Sources: ERPC / CEPI

85% of paper & board packaging is actually recycled today in Europe: this is the highest rate of all packaging materials (metal, glass, plastic).

The fibres used to make paper and board are natural and renewable:

recycled fibres
virgin fibres, from thinning wood (silvicultural operations necessary for the maintenance and growth of forests) and related products of the wood industry (sawmill waste)

October 18, European Paper Bag Day

AdminCEE — Mon, 04 Jan 2021 21:40:09 +0000

We are proud to celebrate the 3rd European Paper Bag Day with our employees and local associations. This annual day of action raises consumers’ awareness of paper bags, which represent a sustainable and efficient packaging solution to avoid waste and minimize the impact on the environment. This year’s edition highlights the character reusable paper bags.

Thank you to our dedicated teams, who get involved every day of the year in the manufacture of paper bags!

This Sunday, October 18, European Paper Bag Day: loyal to the post, the women and men of the “shopping bag” sector have made the paper bags that will soon pack your nuggets, your take-out menus, your shopping at the Drive, your basket of vegetables organic … and that you can reuse for next Sunday’s picnic!

We are also happy to renew our annual donation of paper bags to local self-help associations.

This year, the donation will benefit 2 associations which come to the aid of the most disadvantaged, and are very active in Thouars: “The Secours Populaire” and “Les Restos du Coeur” .

We have chosen to offer them 2-ply paper bags reusable , specifically adapted to transport of frozen and fresh products . Thus, the two associations will be able to distribute meals and fresh food products to people in need, without breaking the cold chain. Individuals and families will use these bags to take their food safely, and can save the paper bags for use and reuse as needed.

On the occasion of this 3rd edition, “The Paper Bag”, which brings together the main European manufacturers of kraft paper and bags, also launched a series of videos where the reuse of a paper bag is tested and demonstrated in the light. of different everyday situations. Check them out below!
