We understand the responsibility we have to reduce the impact of our packaging on the environment, and we're on it!
At the moment, the packaging we use is the best way to keep our crisps crunchy and delicious. However, we're aiming to make all our packaging 100% recyclable, compostable or biodegradable by 2025. In the meantime, we've partnered with recyclers TerraCycle to make it easier to recycle our crisp packets and reduce the impact we have on the environment.
UPDATE: Thousands of people around the country have joined our scheme: we now have more collection points and have collected more packaging than any other scheme of this type in the UK
