Klöckner Pentaplast launches recyclable EPP pizza box under Infinity brand
Klöckner Pentaplast is rolling out kp Infinity Tavola, a recyclable expanded polypropylene pizza box, in the UK and selected European markets from September 2026. The company says the two-part interlocking design keeps pizza up to 7.3 degrees Celsius hotter after five minutes than traditional cardboard boxes and avoids the oil and cheese contamination that complicates paper-based recycling.
Why this mattersA recyclable plastic alternative to cardboard pizza boxes targets a foodservice category where food contamination has limited paper recycling options.
