“Growing Preference for Eco-Friendly and Non-Toxic Baking Solutions”
- Consumers and food service operators are increasingly opting for biodegradable and chlorine-free parchment as a safer alternative to plastic-based liners. This shift is particularly evident in health-conscious and environmentally aware regions
- The clean-label movement and demand for toxin-free packaging are driving interest in unbleached parchment, especially for organic and artisanal bakery items
- Foodservice providers are replacing silicone and plastic-coated papers with compostable parchment to align with sustainability commitments and government mandates
- Regulations banning single-use plastics, such as those enforced in Canada and parts of Europe, are accelerating the adoption of eco-friendly parchment materials
- For instance, in France, multiple commercial bakery chains have switched to chlorine-free parchment rolls to meet eco-label requirements and avoid penalties on plastic packaging waste
