kp Tray2Tray^® is circularity in action – recycling food trays and rigid film to make new trays and film of the same quality, again and again.

While PET bottles are now frequently recycled, billions of trays are still wasted every year. kp Tray2Tray^® fixes this by creating a closed loop for food packaging trays working with suppliers to create a separate supply stream of recycled PET pots, tubs, and trays, that can be used to create more of the same. This initiative ensures PET trays and rigid films come back time again as fully recyclable food packaging, removing the need for virgin material to enter the supply chain.

On its own, kp Tray2Tray^® has the potential to bring more than 50,000 tonnes of rPET back into use.

kp Tray2Tray^® is used in many of our packaging solutions for protein food packaging trays and rigid film products and we currently include more than 30% of post-consumer rPET flake in our protein food packaging trays and rigid films products.  Demonstrating our commitment to creating a closed loop, at least 30% of recycled material in kp food packaging will include kp Tray2Tray® material by 2025.
