Global leader in sustainable packaging, BioPak, has unveiled its latest innovation for Japanese restaurants and sushi retailers with the launch of its takeaway BioBoard Sushi Tray range. This compostable, customisable solution is designed to help food businesses promote sustainability while maintaining high-quality presentation.
Developed in collaboration with one of Australia’s top sushi retailers, these purpose-built, durable trays are now available to all sushi businesses in Australia and New Zealand, fostering the adoption of compostable packaging across the sector.
The BioBoard Sushi Trays are made from FSC
Premium paper and lined with a unique aqueous coating. Noted as being sturdier than traditional plastic trays, which are often flimsy and non-recyclable, these innovative trays offer a sleek, stylish design to enhance the presentation of sushi. Additionally, the trays can be custom-branded to meet the needs of individual businesses.
Trevor Rumble, BioPak’s Product & Innovations Director, shared the inspiration behind this innovative new range.
“Many people aren’t aware that the traditional black plastic sushi trays commonly used today are often non-recyclable. Despite this, they remain a staple for many sushi retailers. Our new BioBoard trays are a sustainable, high-quality alternative—a true win-win.”
He continued, “This project was months in the making. Our close collaboration with a leading sushi retailer allowed us to create a product that performs exceptionally well. We tested a variety of materials, and paper lined with an aqueous coating delivered the best results. Thanks to the coating, the sushi looks great on the tray and doesn’t stick to it. Plus, because the trays are paper-based, they are easy to custom-print, which was a key requirement for the sector.”
The BioBoard Sushi Trays are available in five sizes – extra small, small, medium, large, and long and can be paired with either industrially compostable PLA lids (AS4736) or recyclable PET lids.
