Description: American Packaging Corporation (APC) and Lamb Weston created a circular sustainable packaging scenario for Lamb Weston’s line of Alexia Organic frozen potato products. The film used in the packaging of this product is partially made from plant-based starches, 16% by weight, including processing by-product from the manufacturing of french fries. Not only is this packaging replacing plastic material with bio-based content, but it is also finding a new home for french fry by-product.
