Mug Shot, manufactured by proud Yorkshire firm Symington’s, is ready to help with your 2022 New Year resolutions by rolling out their new, 100 per cent recyclable packaging. The new and improved sachets are the perfect lunch or snack choice for those keen to make more sustainable lifestyle choices and reduce their use of single-use plastics.

The popular brand was inspired to make the changes by their customers’ desire for more environmentally friendly packaging options, knowing how important it is to them to make considered choices when it comes to recyclability.

The improved sachets still retain Mug Shot’s standout features such as its widely recognised logo, bright vibrant packs and the all-important health information, outlining calorie and fat content to resonate with health-focused customers.

“We understand that a lot of people will be looking at how they become more sustainable in their day-to-day lives, especially when thinking about their New Year’s resolutions in January.
