New partnership brings Stratus-faction for Parkside

PARKSIDE has confirmed it has entered into a new partnership with French packaging specialist Stratus Packaging.

Stratus is a manufacturer and distributor of packaging solutions and supplies in four market sectors – food and beverage, health and beauty, industry and chemicals.

Parkside said the new agreement will allow Stratus to work with the firm on all small runs of compostable packaging and become the sole manufacturer and distributor of Parkside products in France and Switzerland.

François Xavier Allilaire, sales and marketing director at Stratus said, “Parkside is one of the leading manufacturers of compostable packaging solutions in Europe, so it is with pride that we are launching this new collaboration. This partnership will allow us to approach the flexible packaging market in France and Switzerland with a niche product, and we are extremely excited about this new relationship. This is the right time and place to be able to offer such a product on the market when customers are so environmentally conscious.”

Paula Birch, Parkside’s sales and marketing director added, “We had wanted to expand in the French market for some time and Stratus was the obvious choice to be our number one partner to achieve this. They are leaders in the food, health and beauty, industrial and chemical sectors and by using our innovative solutions with their distribution channels, we hope to be at the forefront of certified home compost solutions.”
