Newsflash Asia

- June 17, 2025

Singapore’s vibrant dining culture, with residents eating out five to six times a week, is increasingly influencing the shift towards sustainable packaging. As the demand for eco-friendly options grows, APP Group has introduced Foopak Bio Natura, a compostable and biodegradable food packaging solution. This innovation aligns with the nation’s fast-paced lifestyle and environmental goals, addressing the rising concern over packaging waste.

Foopak Bio Natura is designed to meet the needs of Singapore’s food and beverage scene, offering a food-safe, grease-resistant, and heat-stable material. It is suitable for various dining establishments, from hawker centres to artisanal cafés. Ricca Windysari, Foopak SEA Regional Sales Head, stated, “Consumers want their meals fast, tasty, and Instagram-worthy, but also better for the planet, and that’s where Foopak Bio Natura steps in.”

The packaging solution supports Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 by reducing single-use plastics and food packaging waste. Its adaptability makes it ideal for eateries adopting sustainable practices, including farm-to-table restaurants and delivery-focused cloud kitchens. Windysari added, “Packaging is no longer just about function but brand values. When a business chooses Foopak, it signals to customers that they care about both the product and the planet.”

As Singapore continues to lead in food innovation and green transformation, Foopak Bio Natura offers a practical way for food businesses to embrace sustainability, one meal at a time. APP Group, a leading pulp, paper, and forestry company, prioritises sustainability and ethical practices, aligning with its Sustainability Roadmap Vision 2030.
