The new mini tubs are certified as industrially compostable, produced by a packaging manufacturer accredited by TÜV Austria under the OK compost INDUSTRIAL scheme, and must be disposed of via the appropriate commercial waste streams.
Based in Plymouth, Devon, Yarde Farm has been crafting artisanal ice cream and sorbets for more than 30 years.
The compostable mini tubs will be introduced alongside two new flavours, the first to be sold in this packaging.
Available from Bidfood, the Cherry Cola Sorbet becomes the fifth vegan flavour in the Yarde Farm mini tub range, meaning almost 30% of their mini tubs are now vegan.
The mini tubs have also been redeveloped in response to customer feedback, with brighter, more colourful designs to enhance freezer and counter stand-out.
This refreshed look is reflected across Yarde Farm’s newly launched website, which brings the updated brand identity to life while reinforcing its core values.
Tom Hackley, managing director, Yarde Farm, said: “Using certified industrially compostable packaging allows us to make meaningful progress, while remaining clear and transparent about how it should be disposed of.”
