Herkkumaa, a leading Finnish producer of preserved vegetables, jams, sauces, and mayonnaises, has taken a significant step toward reducing the environmental footprint of its packaging. 

As global demand grows for circular food packaging, Faerch continues to advance food-grade recycling at scale through its CIRPET+™ material, produced from recycled former food packaging. One of the leading examples of this progress is the transition implemented by Norfersk, a major Norwegian fresh meat producer. 

In 2024, Smukfest in Denmark set an ambitious goal to collect 75% of its festival cups for recycling. Partnering with Royal Unibrew, Dansk Retursystem, and Faerch, the festival not only met but exceeded expectations, achieving an impressive 95% collection rate of over one million cups used during the festival week.

In 2024, global meat producer Danish Crown began replacing 55 million black meat trays in Denmark with green Evolve by Faerch trays. Made from at least 90% recycled content, these trays are fully recyclable and compatible with existing recycling systems – an important milestone in achieving circular packaging.

For several years, Agromousquetaires, leading manufacturer of private labels and the fifth largest agri-food group in France, has worked with Faerch to transition its food packaging trays from XPS, EVOH and PE trays to mono-material APET.

In a time marked by a focus on innovation, precision, reliability, automation, and sustainability within the food industry, a partnership between two industry leaders has led to a revelation: Faerch's patented Ultra Low Stacking trays.
