What our members say
At BioPak, we create sustainable foodservice packaging solutions that are disrupting the current take, make, waste model and leading the way toward a truly circular economy.
Our difference is simple – BioPak’s packaging solutions are better for the planet, better for people and better for business. Produced from responsible and innovative materials made from plants, not fossil fuels, our products are certified compostable.
The BBIA is an invaluable resource to keep us up to date on relevant news, legislation changes as well as providing support on consultations and other government issues. They also provide excellent networking opportunities, if we ever need specific data or reports, they always seem to know someone who can help and are always happy to do so. They offer a collaborative space for all industries in this sector to come together and tackle the big issues.

Our renewable and compostable NatureFlex™ films are sold to converters, brand owners and end-users in over 100 countries worldwide. They become part of the packaging, labelling or overwrap solution for some of the world’s best-known brands across a wide variety of everyday consumer goods.
We highly value being part of the BBIA, an association that brings together the UK’s biobased and biodegradable industries. Members share the same vision of achieving a successful UK bioeconomy. Our collaborative work enables the further promotion of renewable and compostable solutions and the development of a more supportive business environment. Modernizing the UK government policy towards recognising the importance of bioeconomy remains a key target.
