Linda McCartney packs to use Symphony’s d2w additive

Brand owner Hain Celestial is to use the additive in Linda McCartney falafels from the end of this month. It has already been used in the brand’s vegetarian mince, which is available in Sainsbury’s.

Plastic materials treated with the oxo-biodegradable additive undergo two-step degradation, initially by an oxidative process that is promoted by the inclusion of the additives and subsequently by biodegradation.

The technology is recognised by the d2w droplet logo.

New York-based Hain Celestial Group manufactures natural and organic foods. Its UK headquarters are in Luton, Bedfordshire, with a factory in Fakenham, Norfolk.

Symphony has supplied d2w to make more than five billion plastic products. Other customers include clothes store Zara, the Co-op, Pizza Hut, Albany Bakeries (South Africa) and Grupo Bimbo (South America).
