Packaging Actions That Support Waste Reduction

Match capacity to menu size: Use 500ml, 750ml, 1000ml or larger bowls based on actual food portions instead of selecting one oversized model for all menus. Improve lid fit: A stable lid system reduces leakage during delivery and protects food quality. Choose material by food type: Hot soup, oily meals, salads, cold drinks and dry snacks require different packaging structures. Avoid unnecessary secondary packaging: Do not add sleeves, bags or inserts unless they improve hygiene, insulation or transport safety.
