12 Jun 2024 --- In a “landmark move” for the fast-food industry, McDonald’s largest independent franchisee Arcos Dorados Holdings has begun equipping its food packaging with a 100% biodegradable barrier compound made with Janus technology by J&J Green Paper. Operating in Argentina, Arcos Dorados began to implement Janus in the primary bags and wrappers of hamburgers. The solution is an all-natural coating that creates a barrier to grease, water and oxygen when applied to paper for food packaging, like wrap paper, boxes, cups, utensils, K-cups and straws.
