HUHTAMAKI has celebrated a double triumph at the Foodservice Packaging Association (FPA) awards.
The firm, working in collaboration with Ace UK (Ace Hygiene Supplies) were joint winners of the Product innovation Award. The partnership helped create two pieces of packaging for Levy UK to supply to restaurants at the O2 Arena.
Huhtamaki was also crowned Manufacturer of the Year at the ceremony, held in Brighton.
Keith Crossley, Huhtamaki UK general manager said, “Huhtamaki was voted winner of Manufacturer of the Year Award by our customers and distributors. To receive this level of recognition from within our industry is outstanding and reflects the dedication and commitment of our teams working across the UK. This is further enhanced by winning the Product innovation Award with Ace UK where we were briefed to provide a range of stylish and functional packaging for ‘in situ’ and ‘to go’ food options for Levy UK at the O2. Working collaboratively, we delivered a range with a stylish design, high quality print and unrivalled functionality to provide the O2 customer with a memorable dining experience in their seat, in precise keeping with the venue, the menu and the occasion.”
Huhtamaki was also named runner up in the Sustainability Award category for its recycling scheme with Gosport Council.
