We have noticed that many more businesses are trying to make sustainability a priority this year. Last August, Forbes reported that a little over 60% of businesses report having a sustainability imitative. That figure has increased by at least a third since the beginning of the year.

There are many ways that companies can do a good job practicing sustainability. One of the most important steps that they can take is to start investing in sustainable packaging solutions. This is especially important for the food products industry, where packaging consumes so many resources since people buy food on a regular basis.

Sustainable Food Packaging is Becoming Very Important in the Food Industry

The Food Institute recently highlighted the importance of sustainable food packaging. Food Institute author Kelly Beacon cited a recent statistic showing that 77% of consumers feel that sustainable food packaging is very important.

Beaton has pointed out that a number of companies are living up to this expectation. For example, Spring Creek Quail Farms is led by eco-friendly entrepreneurs has started using transparent, Bio-PET in all of their egg packaging.
