Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee, in partnership with Graphic Packaging International, is introducing a new sustainable packaging option, the Boardio paperboard canister, for their coffee products. This innovative packaging, made from paper/foil lamination, is designed to replace plastic, glass, and metal containers, maintaining freshness and food safety with significantly less waste. The Boardio canisters are delivered flat to increase transportation efficiency, requiring fewer trucks compared to pre-formed cans, and feature a minimum of 80% FSC® certified paperboard. This initiative reflects consumer demand for environmentally-friendly packaging, with research indicating a preference for sustainable options even at a higher cost. The new canisters will be used in Mother Parkers' Fort Worth, Texas facility starting late 2024.
