After the implementation of the UK plastic packaging tax in 2022, it is expected that there will be less plastic used in processed meat packaging, both chilled and frozen, over the forecast period. Because of this tax, using non-recycled plastic packaging is now more expensive, encouraging manufacturers to choose more environmentally-friendly options.
The trend towards reducing single-use plastic is expected to be driven by the increasing use of recyclable flexible plastic in shelf stable meat packaging, which is expected to be seen in 2024 as more players switch to vacuum packaging solutions. For example, the Asda supermarket chain is replacing the plastic trays in its Just Essentials beef mince line with flexible plastic film that is lighter and recyclable.
