Parkside is using its compostable packaging expertise to support vegan nutrition brand Vegums with a new flexible pouch for multivitamin gummies.
The new solution uses film supplied by Futamura and is TÜV certified as home compostable, meaning it breaks down within 26 weeks in a domestic compost heap and within 12 weeks in an industrial composting facility. The new pouch has enabled Vegums to significantly reduce the amount of packaging material it uses, replacing its previous solution that consisted of a flow wrap pack inside a cartonboard tube. Reducing weight by eliminating the rigid tube was a huge benefit for Vegums, which runs a successful subscription service alongside traditional eCommerce and retail channels.
The compostable paper pouch uses an innovative water-based barrier coating to ensure the products are protected to preserve freshness and provide the best possible consumer experience.
Staci Bye, Sales Account Manager at Parkside, said, “Consumers are increasingly prioritising their health – but they’re also concerned about the health of the planet. Our high-performance compostable packaging delivers a true cradle-to-cradle solution that doesn’t compromise performance for sensitive nutrition applications.
“It has been a great experience working with Vegums, as the team there has a clear vision of their identity as a provider of clean-label, responsibly-produced, plant-based products. We want to thank them for trusting us to deliver a solution that furthers that important vision.”
John Rushton, Co-Found and CEO of Vegums, added, “Working with Parkside on this project has been fantastic – their experience in compostable packaging has helped us dramatically cut down on material use without sacrificing quality or customer experience. Staci and the Parkside team have been great partners through the process; responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us advance our sustainability goals.”
The new commercialisation marks Parkside out as a leading supplier to the nutrition market, which is increasingly looking for packaging that protects the health of the planet as well as the health of consumers.
