It's International Sushi Day, and we're here to tell you all about the best way to package this star of takeaways and home deliveries! To protect these delicate morsels until they reach their final destination, there's nothing like packaging that's adapted to their shape, the conditions in which they'll be displayed on the shelf and all the criteria that will help you stand out from the crowd. > Practicality and convenience: Ordering sushi means being able to eat easily at home, at the office or elsewhere, at any time of day. So you need packaging that's easy to use and ergonomic, whether it's a compartmentalised box or a tray. Practicality is also essential for the restaurateur to guarantee efficiency in the kitchen. > Personalisation and aesthetics: The art of sushi is reflected in the taste and appearance of the creations: to delight the eyes as well as the taste buds! The design of the packaging is therefore key to highlighting the sushi and attracting the eye. Add to this the option of personalising the packaging to enhance the beauty of the contents and your company's brand image. > Versatility and durability: The wealth of packaging materials means you can choose the most optimal solution according to your environmental, usage and conservation criteria: recycled cardboard, recyclable plastic, moisture barrier, fat barrier, stackability, transparency, etc. The best way to choose your packaging solutions? Listen to the advice of an expert, ask your questions, set out your constraints and come up with the packaging that will guarantee the quality and authenticity of your sushi.
