In addition to their ergonomic design, paper bags can be easily folded and stored, which makes them practical for customers and businesses alike.
2) Easy Disposal
Another advantage to using paper bags is that once they can no longer be used for their purpose, they can be disposed of in numerous, eco-friendly ways.
For example, paper bags can be recycled. They can be disposed of in the paper recycling bin, but you must ensure to check they aren’t contaminated with food waste.
Alternatively, paper bags can be composted. They should be mixed with green materials, such as leaves and grass clippings, and water should be added to speed up the process of composting.
3) Improved Image
By using sustainable packaging, you’ll see an increase in your customer base since greener living is becoming a more desired option.
Additionally, your new customers will become loyal customers because they will be more inclined to return to your takeaway business if they can see you are taking measures to be environmentally responsible as well as providing high-quality packaging that delivers.
4) Sustainability
As previously mentioned, more and more people are seeking sustainable products and packaging, which means they’re proactively shopping with businesses that are sourcing eco-friendly packaging products.
The average plastic bag can take between 15 to 1,000 years to decompose, and while doing so, they release toxic chemicals, which are harmful to animals and the soil we need to support life.
So, by offering an alternative to plastic carrier bags, such as brown paper carrier bags, you will be helping your customers reduce their carbon footprint as well as demonstrating that you are taking responsibility for our environment.
5) Reduced Costs
If you use sustainable packaging and products within your takeaway business, then with their potential to be reused and repurposed, you can cut down on financial outgoings.
Paper bags can be easily reused by your customers, but also by you as a business, which means fewer bags will be needed, reducing stock orders and the price you pay.
Now that you know the benefits of our brown paper carrier bags, and how they can help your takeaway business’ carbon footprint, then consider adding these to the packaging that you offer to your customers.
Tianxiang stocks a whole range of sustainable products and biodegradable food packaging, which can further help to make your takeaway business more eco-friendly.
