EPS foam uses fewer resources and less energy than alternative packaging. Efficient, lightweight and durable, EPS reduces both package size and fuel consumption during transportation. And because of its superior performance EPS seafood containers avoid food waste due to spoilage.

For perspective, over 100 billion pounds of food, or more than a quarter of the 400 billion pounds of edible food, is spoiled each year during transport. When it comes to protecting food, the right package can dramatically reduce waste and have a major positive impact on the environment.
