At Satori we are constantly looking for new products and materials to enhance your dining experience and that includes packaging for our takeaway operations to ensure your meal arrives at your door in optimum condition. We test all products ourselves to understand their limitation before choosing a new product.

 

We also take the environmental impact of our packaging into account. Aside from compostable packaging we also look at recyclability of materials and that includes low energy recycling. For example, polypropylene melts at around 160 degrees Celsius, meaning fossil fuels are not required in the recycling process, whereas aluminium and glass have melting points of around 600 and 1500 degrees Celsius respectively, requiring high temperatures not currently possible with electricity alone.
