Expand Prev NextNew packaging will be offered for burgers, drinks, fries and other sides, and will function via a deposit scheme. The packaging will be available in five restaurants initially, with customer response guiding future roll-out plans.
The pilot launch has been created in partnership with global re-use platform, Loop, and will see the famous fast-food chain sell burgers in re-usable clamshell packaging.
The first five restaurants to offer the packaging will be based in Ipswich and Newmarket. The same initiative was announced in five restaurants in the US last month.
The chain has set itself a target of a 41% reduction in value chain emissions per restaurant by 2030, and 0% single-use plastic by 2025. The pilot will run from 26th?April 2022 until 5th?September 2022.
Customers will have the option to pay a ?1.00 deposit for a re-usable cup or container instead of using throwaway packaging, helping reduce single-use packaging consumption.?
When customers return the re-usable cup or container, they can do so by downloading the Loop app, scanning the barcode on either the cup or container and returning it into a Loop bin. Loop bins will be placed outside the restaurants where the trials are taking place, as well as in other locations found via the Loop app.
Customers who return their cups or containers will be refunded their deposit, with all returned cups or containers being cleaned using Loop?s cleaning system, scientifically designed to sanitise each item before reuse and then put back into the cycle.
