With Tray Contrast and Ronda Contrast, Duni Group is offering a paper-based option intended to keep the black appearance while making sorting easier in existing systems.<\/p>\n

The range covers black paper-based trays and bowls with a barrier layer, paired with transparent lids to allow product visibility on shelves and in take-away use.<\/p>\n

The products are\u00a0mainly designed\u00a0for cold food, though they can be used at temperatures up to 70\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

The lids are made to fit tightly for safer handling.<\/p>\n

The trays and bowls are produced from FSC-certified and other controlled materials and do not\u00a0contain\u00a0added per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).<\/p>\n

Some items in the range can also be customised with customer branding.<\/p>\n

Duni Group said that a sushi restaurant selling 500 portions a week could cut plastic use by around half a tonne a year by replacing a 20g black plastic tray with a paper-based version, depending on the format chosen.<\/p>\n

Duni Group\u00a0boxes and bowls\u00a0category manager\u00a0Matilda Pettersson\u00a0said:\u00a0\u201cWe see a clear need for packaging solutions that both strengthen the visual expression of food and work in practice \u2013 all the way after use.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Tray Contrast and Ronda Contrast, we have developed a black paper-based alternative that is adapted to existing sorting flows and, at the same time, meets the trade\u2019s requirements for functionality, visibility and handling.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last month, Duni Group\u00a0introduced Sealable Ronda<\/a>, a sealable paper bowl product under the\u00a0Duniform\u00a0brand, aimed at the demand for ready-to-eat salads and bowl meals.\u00a0<\/p>\n
