Which of the Vegie Delights packaging is recyclable?
Our Vegie Delights canned range of products are fully recyclable and now carry the ARL (Australian Recycling Label) to help remind you to recycle the empty can. The paper label on the can is recyclable and we recommend rinsing the can if any product is remaining before you recycle.
Our Vegie Delights frozen products, like Vegie Delights Schnitzels and Smokey BBQ Burgers, come in a pouch.
Our Vegie Delights chilled products like Vegie Delights Sausages and Mince come in a sleeve. We are still working on alternative solutions for the sleeve and inner wrap (while ensuring our high standards of food safety and nutrition for our chilled products), which are not currently recyclable.

What does conditionally recyclable mean?
Conditionally Recyclable: The clear/ transparent recycling symbol means you must follow the instructions to recycle this packaging component. If you don't follow the instructions, then it must go in the rubbish bin, as it will otherwise not be recycled and cause contamination to the recycling stream.

If you are truly committed to recyclable packaging, why do you use plastic packaging?
Our first priority is to ensure the products we make are safe and nutritious for everyone to enjoy and that we minimise food waste, a significant environmental issue for the food industry. The packaging we use protects the product and ensures it remains good to eat throughout its shelf life when stored according to the directions on the package.
