Sharpak Aylesham is launching two new ranges of packaging in response to the growing demand in high-end fast food.

In the wake of recent statistics which show Britons spend nearly £30 billion every year on takeaways and convenience meals, and a third of their food budget on fast food, the UK manufacturer of thermoformed plastic packaging has produced a new variety of sushi packaging and the Wokipack to keep up with consumer demand.

Mark Byrne, sales director foodservice at Sharpak Aylesham, says, "Convenient, healthy eating is becoming increasingly popular, particularly Japanese food, which is the fastest growing cuisine in the world. Our sushi range, manufactured in rPET, has been specifically repacked into box quantities which are geared towards the foodservice customer and the growing sushi market.

"The Wokipack is a bespoke packaging solution available in three sizes that are table-ready with a form and design created for pasta dishes as well as hot and cold salads."
