“Rise of Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Packaging”
- Consumers are increasingly opting for jams, jellies, and preserves packaged in materials that are recyclable, biodegradable, or made from post-consumer waste
- Glass jars and paper-based labels are gaining popularity as eco-conscious alternatives to traditional plastic containers, with brands such as Bonne Maman adopting fully recyclable glass packaging
- Companies are adopting plant-based inks and water-based adhesives to reduce their environmental impact and appeal to green-conscious shoppers
- Reusable and refillable packaging formats are emerging in specialty food stores and farmers' markets, offering customers a sustainable way to enjoy their favorite products
- For instance, The Jammery, a Canadian preserve company, encourages customers to return empty glass jars for reuse, promoting a closed-loop packaging system that supports waste reduction and eco-friendly practices
