California’s 2027 plastic food packaging ban risks food safety, prices, and waste, experts warn, while new plant-protein boxes show sustainable alternatives in Europe.
California’s proposed 2027 ban on plastic food packaging may harm food safety, raise prices, and increase waste, experts warn, as current plastic packaging helps preserve freshness and reduce spoilage.
Industry leaders urge regulators to exempt food-safe, federally compliant packaging from recycling mandates, citing lower environmental impact than alternatives and risks of increased emissions and supply chain disruptions.
Meanwhile, Xampla and Just Eat have launched plastic-free takeaway boxes in 10 European countries using a plant-protein coating that is heat-resistant, grease-proof, recyclable, and compostable, meeting EU sustainability standards and marking progress in sustainable food packaging innovation.
Los expertos advierten que la prohibición de los envases plásticos para alimentos de California para 2027 pone en riesgo la seguridad alimentaria, los precios y los residuos, mientras que las nuevas cajas de proteínas vegetales muestran alternativas sostenibles en Europa.
