Sainsbury's has announced a major change to its packaging in a bid to become greener. The supermarket giant has replaced the plastic trays in its steak ranges with a cardboard alternative, which it says will reduce plastic waste by around 70 per cent per tray.
The new trays have launched across 10 products in its Sainsbury's Steak range and are now available for all in store and online purchases. The trays can be recycled at home, by rinsing them out with the rest of your recycling and putting out with your kerbside recycling.
The supermarket introduced the packaging with its Taste the Difference and So Organic steaks previously. It comes after a series of changes made by the supermarket to up its sustainability - stores removed the trays from its whole chickens in April and introduced cardboard cartons to its own-brand liquid laundry detergent.
