GNAW trials 100% recyclable paper wrappers for choc buttons

GNAW trials 100% recyclable paper wrappers for choc buttons

Artisanal chocolate producer Gnaw continues to pursue its ambitious sustainable agenda in 2025 with the introduction of new eco-friendly pouches for their chocolate buttons.

The state-of-the-art EvoPak RCM is a 100 per cent recyclable paper wrapper, which unlike a majority of its so-called environmentally friendly paper wrapper peers contains no polyethylene, which means it can effortlessly be disposed of in kerbside bins or into bespoke paper recyclable collections.


“EvoPak offers a significant step-change in planet-responsible snacking and confectionery wrappers as a result of significant advances in lightweight, multi-layer structures that preserve shelf-life whilst producing none of the harmful microplastics historically associated with snacking wrappers that unwittingly release harmful microplastics as they break down,” said MD Mike Navarro.

Gnaw is a leading voice within the UK’s thriving artisanal chocolate movement that sets great store by its proud sustainable stance; be that significant investment in clean energy (solar) that provides 70 per cent of its manufacturing needs, rejecting irresponsibly farmed palm oil and prioritising 100 per cent compostable/recyclable wrappers and vegetable inks for its headline chocolate range.

“Our sublime buttons remain a leading light within our ever-expanding premium chocolate portfolio, providing the perfect vehicle for our next sustainable initiative, championing awareness for cutting-edge wrapper technology that helps to address the catastrophic clogging up of seas and rivers with unwelcome micro-plastics,” Navarro concluded.
