Idahoan Foods is the number one instant mash brand in the UK, recently declaring the promotion of completely recyclable paper pouches for its leading invention, Idahoan Perfect Mash, which is completing its assignment to change all wrapping to sustainable, recyclable arrangements. This packaging invention is the consequence of over three years of growth and severe testing in partnership with packaging experts Tungate, design an important step in Idahoan’s sustained promise of ecological stewardship from field to fork.

Blended and filled in the UK, consuming Idahoan’s proprietary Fresh Dried™ skill, the shift to paper pockets further decreases Idahoan’s carbon footprint by taking trucks off the road linked to fresh and frozen potato arrangements. Idahoan’s Perfect Mash not only provides extraordinary taste and value but also results the way in sustainability and suitability for the current household.

The paper pouch promotion follows Idahoan’s extraordinary development trajectory since entering the UK industry. In just 23 months, Perfect Mash developed the number one invention in the immediate mash group. As of the 26 weeks ending, Idahoan embraces a 55% segment of the immediate mash market place by worth and has fully-fledged 29% in sales volume ended the same period.

In spite of this success, Idahoan observes vast headroom for additional extension. Household infiltration in the UK remains below 5%, associated with 32% in the US, where Idahoan structures are in approximately one in three homes. With supreme flavour, suitability, and now a completely recyclable paper pouch, Idahoan is confident that this invention will further quicken its development and influence the value across the group.

Sales Director at Tungate Group, Gareth Partlett, expressed,

“We’re delighted that Idahoan has chosen our market-leading TG2 paper kerbside recyclable material for the relaunch of this prestigious product range. These revolutionary materials provide exceptionally high barrier properties, giving equivalent product shelf life to the previous non-recyclable grade, fully FSC-accredited papers, and class-leading print quality via Tungate’s latest LED HD Flexo technology. This enables the quality of these products to really stand out on the shelf in a crowded marketplace.”
