We’re committed to

Sustainable Packaging

Shifting to reusable, recyclable or compostable plastic and reducing all forms of packaging waste is a global environmental priority.

There’s clear momentum for change and we’re aligned. That’s why we’re adopting sustainable packaging for our products.

Recycling garbage

Reducing food packaging waste

We’re on a journey to reduce food packaging waste by developing sustainable packaging for all our products.

We’re exploring ways to…
– Reduce the overall amount of packaging used
– Source materials that have high recycled content
– Shift to reusable and recyclable materials
– Implement eco-friendly packaging alternatives

The possibilities are endless, and we’ll continue exploring and improving.

How we’re changing our packaging

Developing sustainable packaging for our products

We’re reducing packaging materials, using recyclable packaging options, and launching eco-friendly solutions.

Take a look at how we’re changing the packaging of some of your favourite products.

Maple Leaf Natural Selection baked honey ham product pack

We optimized how we measure materials used for our Deli Meat portfolio of products on 175 g pack sizes. This reduced packaging material weight by 30%.

Maple Leaf Natural Chicken product pack

We launched our “Prepped & Ready” portfolio of products in packaging with an eco-friendly solution. The solution uses a combination of 90% recycled paperboard and 83% less plastic (when compared to traditional, high-impact polystyrene trays).

Maple Leaf Prime organic chicken product pack

We resized the packaging components of our Maple Leaf Prime® Further Processed Poultry product. This reduced packaging material weight by 14%.
