Corrugated cardboard replaces polystyrene
Ferdinand Bierbichler is replacing the large-format EPS boxes for its smoked fish with corrugated cardboard packaging. The new pack is made from virgin fibre material with a greaseproof water-based barrier coating that is suitable for direct food contact.

For better handling, the fish remains wrapped in waxed paper and the packaging is sealed with an anti-fog film. The empty corrugated pack can be recycled easily in the wastepaper stream and the film wrap sorted into plastic waste.
