Canadian and French companies introduce packaging from tomato plants

Pure Hothouse Foods has recently introduced their new Cloud 9 snacking tomato brand with high-flavor tomato. This new brand is packed in a board enriched with tomato plant fibres. These fibres are uniquely produced by Solidus Solutions, manufacturer of solid board and solid board packaging. Pure Hothouse Foods is with this decision the first Canadian company packing tomatoes in their own plant fibres, contributing to a circular economy. During the PMA 2016 fair the Cloud 9 tomato plant packaging of Pure Hothouse Foods was very much appreciated and achieved a finalist nomination at the PMA 2016 Impact Awards. The unique solid board enriched with tomato plant fibres, produced by Solidus Solutions was almost at the same time announced winner of the Packaging Europe Sustainability Awards 2016.
