Packaging by nature

30 April 2004


Europackaging is the first company in in Europe to offer blown film bags made from NatureWorks PLA. The UK based packaging manufacturer and distributor has introduced a range of products to help retailers capitalise on growing consumer demand for nature-based packaging.

Made from Cargill Dow's NatureWorks PLA – the first commercially viable material derived from an annually renewable resource (corn) – the product lines include general merchandise carrier bags, luxury shopping bags, and bakery film front bags.

"The idea of clear packaging made from corn is a simple, yet striking concept that truly appeals to consumers," says Europackaging R&D director Adam Dickinson. "People believe products inside a natural package are more appealing – a perception that creates significant value for retailers by increasing interest and brand awareness," adds Bob Springs, managing director Europe, Cargill Dow.
