Eco-Focused Candy Packaging

The Barratt Favourites Variety Tub is Recyclable

— October 26, 2022 — Marketing
The Barratt Favourites variety tub is being launched by the Valeo Snackfoods confectionery brand as a way for consumers to access some of their favorite sweets. The product is being launched in the UK and features fully recyclable packaging that is crafted using 85% less plastic compared to the previous Barratt tubs. The translucent plastic lid on the package is also crafted using 30% recycled plastic to give it even more of an eco-focused edge over the competition.

The Barratt Favourites variety tub features a 500-gram size that's priced at £3.50 and is arriving just in time to coincide with the Halloween season. The product features an array of individually wrapped candies for consumers to enjoy.
