The coffee used is all Fair Trade. The packaging is designed to satisfy the demanding barrier requirements for coffee packaging with regard to moisture, oxygen and aroma, but is at the same time certified compostable. \u201cCoffee is good for the soil,\u201d said Nick Schaude of Beanarella on accepting the award. \u201cWe use 100% compostable pouches and capsules. So we give it back after use. We cannot go on wasting commodities the way we have done until now. We have to change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zandonella was recognized for the development of a PLA ice cream container designed to match the organic principles behind the company\u2019s gourmet ice cream.<br \/>\nThe 500 ml box itself is made expanded fine particle PLA foam from Synbra, while all the other components of the packaging are also made of renewable raw materials, as well as being suitable for industrial composting. It is highly functional: the ice cream will remain frozen without cooling for at least an hour.<\/p>\n<p>Both recipients were surprised and pleased with the honor. Werner Oelschlaeger, who received the award on behalf of the Zandonella team, said that he and the team were\u201d very happy about the decision that was made in our favor.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cThank you to everyone who made this packaging system possible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Nick Schaude, too, expressed his thanks. \u201cWe were proud to be nominated,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a great honor to win!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die Preise wurden auf der 9.
