Fiber-Based Drink Lids Adopted in Swedish Foodservice Chain

Every year, more than 300 billion plastic lids, equivalent to 1.5 million tons of plastic, are produced, and many of them end up as litter in the world’s oceans.

A Swedish collaboration between foodservice brand MAX Burgers and its suppliers PulPac and Liplid is replacing the traditional plastic lid with what the trio says is a more sustainable fiber-based alternative.

“As a restaurant we are part of the problem, but we want to be part of the solution. We want to be a role model for our industry. When we go public with how our meals affect the climate, our guests can help us to lower our joint impact,” says Richard Bergfors, President of MAX Hamburger, on the company’s website. Liplid In Cup

MAX Burgers says it is the first quickservice restaurant chain to label and compensate for the food’s impact on the environment. As part of this ecologically minded stance, it will start to roll out the Liplid in all its restaurants in Sweden in 2022.
