What Solution to Replace Plastic?
Testimonial from Colette, Engineer in a Food Industry Group:
Our Challenge:
“We were using plastic molds to make some of our recipes. We wanted to find a solution that was more cost-effective, more environmentally friendly, and also more technical.”
Our Industrial Objectives:
- Reduce costs
- Protect the planet by reducing plastic consumption and waste
- Ensure food safety. We sometimes found plastic elements in our preparations
- Use molds that are more durable and suitable for intensive use
