A case for change - UK banning XPS from the market


The Next Generation of food packaging
Our XPP (NextGen EPP) is one of the most advanced and sustainable food packaging materials available today, designed to combine performance, safety, and environmental responsibility. Since its introduction, we have continued to adopt XPP technology because of its greener, safer, and more reliable results compared to traditional alternatives.
Unlike materials that break down or absorb water, XPP offers excellent moisture resistance, ensuring food stays fresh without leakage. Its thermal protection keeps meals hotter for longer, while its hot oil resistance makes it a trusted solution for high-temperature foods. In addition, XPP is microwave-safe, freezer-stable, and lightweight, delivering unmatched versatility across all foodservice applications.
From a sustainability perspective, XPP stands out as one of the best-performing solutions. Peer-reviewed studies confirm that EPP and EPS have by far the lowest CO₂ footprint when recycled. With PP being one of the most widely recycled plastics worldwide, XPP provides exceptional value in terms of carbon reduction. In fact, XPP outperforms all board-based solutions on a carbon basis, and its recyclability ensures it can be part of a true circular economy.
XPP products are fully recyclable, reusable, and reheatable – aligning with our long-term environmental objectives. Every batch undergoes strict laboratory testing to guarantee safety and quality. They are free from harmful effects to humans, animals, or the environment, and their resistance to bacterial growth adds another layer of health protection.
Over years of production and collaboration, we have never faced a single issue raised by our clients regarding XPP. Today, more than 170 partner companies trust and rely on our packaging for everyday use – proof of both its reliability and customer satisfaction.
Our mission remains simple: to deliver packaging that is stronger, greener, and safer, while ensuring continuous customer trust. With XPP, we are not just meeting today’s foodservice demands — we are shaping a sustainable future for tomorrow.
