Tyson Launches Recycle-Ready Pack for Egg Products

This ‘first-to-market’ package for Jimmy Dean egg bites and frittatas uses a mono-material flexible film construction that is store drop-off recyclable.

Tyson Foods sustainable packgaging
The new packaging for Tyson's Jimmy Dean egg bites and frittatas qualifies for store drop-off recycling while performing at parity with conventional multilayer films.

Following on the heels of a successful collaboration with Amcor on its Instant Pot Meal Kits in 2022, Tyson Foods has introduced another new mono-material flexible film package, this one for its Jimmy Dean egg bites and frittatas, that allows for store drop-off recycling while providing functionality comparable to the multilayer, multi-laminate format it replaces.

Tyson’s Instant Pot packaging uses Amcor’s AmPrima PE Plus Recycle Ready Pouch, made from a proprietary polyethylene film that Amcor says delivers high levels of clarity, stiffness, and heat and abuse resistance while also being recyclable. In addition, it says that PE Plus does not compromise filling performance, graphics or printing, or barrier properties. The new vacuum packaging for the Jimmy Dean breakfast products—said by Amcor to be a first-to-market solution—also uses AmPrima PE Plus, but in a forming/non-forming film application.
