As the ‘season to be jolly’ is almost upon us, it’s time to start thinking about Christmas dinners, both in the office and at home.
According to Quality British Turkey, our favourite beverage to have with our Christmas dinner is white wine, with 70% of us enjoying pigs in blankets and tucking into stuffing. It is not a surprise that over 80% of us accompany our festive meals with seasonal favourites such as roast potatoes and carrots.
For dessert, the proof is indeed in the pudding with over half of UK households eating Christmas pudding, 24% opting for a classic yule log and 20% enjoying cheesecake.
However, the pièce de résistance is, of course, the Christmas turkey. This is a festive ‘must’ for Christmas and most people will have an extremely enjoyable dinner; however according to the NHS one in five of us will risk food poisoning this year by eating turkey that has not been stored at the correct temperature.
This is particularly important with businesses in the catering industry. To ensure the food is kept at the adequate temperature of around 1.6° C, it is essential to use the right food packaging. Here at Wessex Packaging we have spent years developing innovative and versatile polyethylene foam packaging which can be used in cardboard cartons to preserve chilled and frozen foods.
These packs can be customised to your requirements in terms of size and foam thickness, as well as being branded with your company logo. These packs have significant advantages over polystyrene as the branded boxes are reusable, recyclable and cheaper for your company in the long-run.
We always produce high quality, bespoke packaging measured to your requirements, when you require it. This means less waste; saving time, money and the environment in the long run which is reflected in our price offering.
