07 Aug 2020 --- The COVID-19 pandemic has ignited an upsurge in take-out delivery orders, and consequently, single-use plastic container waste. Particularly polystyrene – the material used to make Styrofoam – is experiencing a renewed demand due to the pandemic. Aiming to cut back on harmful throwaway materials, Harvest Pack has stepped up to provide 575 US restaurants and foodservice distributors with customizable, compostable packaging made with 100 percent upcycled sugarcane fiber. This way, Harvest Pack ensures a closed-loop solution that maintains the convenience and food safety of take-out orders, which are “essential to keeping the industry afloat.”
