Learn why switching to wheat straw packaging is the right choice for your business with these five key reasons –
-
Reducing Environmental Impact
Wheat straw packaging is made from a renewable resource and is compostable, making it a more sustainable option compared to traditional plastic packaging. Switching to wheat straw packaging can reduce your carbon footprint and help to protect the environment.
-
Cost Savings
Investing in wheat straw packaging can lead to cost savings in the long-term, as it reduces the need for frequent packaging replacements, and reduces costs associated with waste disposal. Wheat straw is inflation-proof due to its renewability, consistency, and low production costs. It reduces material cost risks, allows for more competitive pricing, and helps increase market share through better forecasting.
-
Brand Image
Consumers are becoming increasingly conscious of the environmental impact of their purchases and switching to wheat straw packaging can help improve your company's brand image and reputation as it shows a commitment to environmental sustainability.
-
Compliance
Governments around the world are implementing regulations to reduce waste including Australia’s 2025 National Packaging Targets. Switching to COPAR’s wheat straw packaging can help companies comply with these regulations and reduce environmental impact.

Adopting COPAR's wheat straw packaging provides a competitive advantage over other businesses.
