  Which disposable food containers should you use to maximize the customer experience? Learn all you can about sustainable, affordable and effective eco-friendly takeaway food containers. We all know the best and most affordable sustainable packaging options that preserve the taste and quality of our food. In addition to providing our customers with great meals and memorable moments in the restaurant, we also want to provide them with an equally great experience at home. Take-out food containers are an important part of the home dining experience. Finding the best disposable food containers used to be a challenge for chefs. Fortunately, more and more containers are choosing to become sustainable.

  Why use eco-friendly takeout containers
  Here are some reasons why your restaurant should consider eco-friendly packaging:
  Save the Planet: Fully 30 percent of municipal solid waste is made from packaging waste, and restaurants contribute a lot to that figure. Restaurants can change the world by reducing waste.
  "Promote your brand" - consumers are becoming more cautious about restaurant packaging. Millennials are about 1.5 times more likely to buy more sustainable products than similar competitors.
  Better brand image
  As people become more environmentally conscious, there is a growing demand for eco-friendly takeaway food containers. Companies can benefit from this opportunity and redefine their brand image. Many food distributors around the world have started to use eco-friendly takeaway food containers to establish a unique brand image in the market. Using eco-labels on your packaging will give you a competitive advantage. You can be creative with your packaging choices. Buy boxes of reasonable size and design. Print logos on the side, then use different-sized boxes for different items. You can use these packages to build brand awareness.
  
  Different options for eco-friendly takeaway food containers
  Bamboo: Bamboo is ubiquitous and has been called "the fastest growing plant in the world". Its crude fibers are ideal for making reusable and recyclable packaging and clothing. It is one of the more expensive packaging solutions on the market.
  Palm leaves: Palm leaves are antibacterial, do not require deforestation or habitat loss, and are cheap to produce. Palm leaves are a great choice for restaurant food containers and to-go boxes.
  Paper or cardboard: Paper and cardboard are both plentiful and recyclable. There is little impact on the environment when recycled or discarded wood or paper is used. Prices vary depending on the company you order from, but it is very versatile and can be used to pack all different types of food.
  
  Corn starch bioplastics
  Scientists have figured out how to make plastic from natural materials like corn and sugar. Depending on the bioplastic, the price may be slightly higher, but it's a better packaging option for consumers and the planet.
  Not all eco-friendly packaging is created equal. When you buy sustainable takeout packaging, look for takeout boxes with advanced features such as:
  Fully biodegradable clamshell compostable containers for handling hot and cold food
  A recycled tote bag made from recycled materials that can be customized to your restaurant's name or logo
  100% recycled cardboard and paper takeaway boxes, biodegradable and chlorine-free, can handle even the greasiest foods
  Fiberboard made from fully compostable compressed sugar cane fiber
  
  Choose a packaging solution that provides a strong seal -- eco-friendly takeaway food containers -- to ensure the food still looks just as appealing when it arrives at its destination. The eco-friendly packaging you choose should also be strong and the lid should fit tightly. Fortunately Hyde Packaging offers a number of eco-friendly delivery packaging options with take-out capabilities.
