Why we need packaging
Packaging is important to help maintaining the taste, quality and freshness of our treats, and to protect them from external contaminants, such as bacteria or pests. Moreover, it provides information on portion size and ingredients to help people make informed purchase choices.
The contribution we can make through packaging is key to reducing the environmental impact of our products, that’s why Kinder participates to the Ferrero Group commitment to:
90%
Ensure that at least 90% of all our packaging is designed to be reusable, recyclable, or compostable.
90.7%
90.7% of our packaging is already designed to be recyclable, reusable or compostable.
When designing our packaging we use the “5R Strategy”, to reduce the use of resources and the waste produced, while ensuring our usual high standards of safety and quality.

We are progressively redesigning our Kinder packaging to replace the multi-material flexible plastic wraps with alternatives made of a single plastic material, designed to be recycled. Discover how:
