31 May 2023 --- Mars is trialing recyclable paper packaging for its candy bars in 500 Tesco stores across the UK since last Monday. In a “UK-first,” the food giant’s pilot test aims to evaluate the viability of alternative packaging materials from its typical plastic wrappers. The move comes after the company achieved carbon neutrality for the first time this year through carbon credits and emission reductions. It will observe consumers’ responses to the paper wrapper and plan accordingly on expansions.
