This compostable chocolate packaging has been created in collaboration between Fazer and Sulapac to bring an eco-friendly profile to the premium product. The chocolate product consists of handmade pralines from Fazer that are delicately confined within the naturally derived box, which is achieved using wood chips along with blinding agents that boast a biodegradable profile. The product will be available starting at the end of November to make it a great option as a gift this holiday season.
Managing Director of Fazer Confectionery Nathalie Ahlström spoke on the compostable chocolate packaging saying, "Consumers are making increasingly conscious choices when it comes to packaging. Fazer studies and tests new alternatives continuously, and we actively aim to improve the recyclability of packaging materials. We encourage consumers to recycle after the product has been consumed and are therefore renewing the markings concerning sorting on our packages as of the beginning of 2020."
