Xampla has announced that Huhtamaki's Taste hot food boxes, featuring the material innovation company's Morro coating, are now available at Bunzl UK & Ireland.

Huhtamaki's Taste hot food boxes are made in the UK from responsibly sourced paper and are available in various sizes. They display an embossed Morro marque to indicate that the barrier coating is plant-based.

Xampla's Morro material has been developed by researchers from the University of Cambridge, UK. It can offer manufacturers and brands a scalable alternative to conventional coatings amid regulatory and environmental pressures, according to Xampla.

Bunzl UK & Ireland will serve as the exclusive distributor for Huhtamaki's 'Taste' hot food boxes featuring Morro Coating into the UK and Ireland until October 2025.

Huhtamaki is a leading global provider of sustainable packaging solutions for consumers around the world.
