Start the year strong by joining a growing movement of restaurants going plastic free and creating healthier, eco-friendly dining experiences. Going plastic free now will future proof your bottom line and here’s why.

Health and Wellness
Current market trends show growing consumer awareness of the health risks associated with toxic chemicals in plastics. Scientists are working together to demonstrate the undeniable impact of plastic chemicals on the body, including pervasive, ‘forever chemicals.’ We are now watching this information trickle down to mainstream. Transitioning to a more sustainable approach isn’t just great for the planet, it’s a powerful way to attract and retain health-conscious diners whilst setting yourself apart.
Net Zero Market
As we know the Labour government are committed to creating a roadmap to a zero-waste economy and accelerate the path to net zero. Plans are set to extend the scope for UK emissions trading scheme to more sectors. While food establishments aren’t directly impacted by UK ETS allowances, they still play a vital role in sustainability. Implementing eco-friendly practices such as reducing plastic use, minimizing food waste, and sourcing locally can significantly lower your carbon footprint and align with the growing focus on environmental responsibility. As policies evolve, businesses in all sectors may face new opportunities and challenges in contributing to a greener future.
Regulatory Compliance
Regulation is coming for plastic with over 60 countries introducing bans and levies on plastic packaging and single waste plastic. Here in the UK, we’ve seen recent regulatory changes from bans on single use plastic, extended producer responsibility for packaging and collection and recycling targets. Reducing plastic will mitigate growing legislative financial risk, avoiding the impact of complying with national and international taxes and future fines for non-compliance.
