Zap packaging is designed for minimal impact: lightweight pouches, recyclable materials
where facilities exist, and no unnecessary layers. Less mass = less transport energy.
Fact Sheet
Lightweight multi-layer pouches (under 3 g)
Outer packs made for recycling streams where available
No refrigeration or secondary wrappers
Ongoing tests on bio-based films & recyclable foils
Design philosophy
We balance protection, hygiene and transport weight. Every gram saved reduces CO₂ during shipping
without compromising freshness or safety.
Material choices
Our current laminate structure is chosen for food-grade barrier and shelf stability.
New bio-based and mono-material alternatives are being evaluated to enable single-stream recycling.
Testing & certification
Packaging materials comply with EU Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 for food contact and migration limits.
Certificates of Compliance and Declarations of Conformity are maintained for each batch.
Future work
We partner with EU suppliers developing next-gen biodegradable films and recyclable laminates to cut waste further.
