Sustainability at Prowrap
We’re a food wrapping manufacturer that works closely with the food industry. This means we’re acutely aware of our role in helping to reduce food and packaging waste across the sector.
We’re on a mission to rethink wrapping. That doesn’t just mean we produce market-leading food wrapping innovations like our sustainable cling films and foils. It means we’re committed to making a positive impact on the industry and the planet.
Our triple bottom line
At Prowrap, we’re guided by our triple bottom line. That means we think that people, profit, and the planet are all equally important to our business.
Supporting our people
We continually reinvest in our people to ensure they can develop their skills every day at work, regardless of their experience. We pride ourselves on creating a safe, creative, and rewarding work environment where all our staff can thrive and grow their careers.
Developing sustainable business strategies
We continually look for ways that we can preserve our planet’s natural resources while also helping foodservice operators to reduce their environmental impact by cutting food waste. WRAP figures show that 920,000 tonnes of food is wasted every year, 75% of which is avoidable. And, as food waste has an even greater environmental footprint than plastic waste, we’re committed to helping our customers support their sustainability goals.
Giving back to the planet
Making profit and protecting the planet should go hand-in-hand. We take care to partner with like-minded suppliers who align with our values and meet our strict quality standards to ensure we minimise our impact on the environment wherever we can.
Doing things differently
We’re proud members of Sedex, the ethical trade membership organisation that works with businesses to make sure their global supply chains are responsible, sustainable, and ethical.
Everything we offer to our customers, from dispensers to rolls of foil to the packaging they arrive in, is made from responsibly sourced parts and materials.
We’re also members of Alupro, the industry-funded, not-for-profit organisation that has been working on behalf of the UK’s aluminium packaging industry for over 30 years. And, as a business, we recycle as much of our pre-consumer foil waste as possible.
Minimising waste with every product
Our Infinity Foil refills are proudly made from recycled material and can be recycled time and time again after use.
Designed to be compatible with the groundbreaking Speedwrap Pro dispensers, these refills fit into the dispenser without the need for a plastic inside each roll. This is also the case for film and paper refills, ensuring we continue to eliminate unnecessary plastic waste across our product portfolio.
We are also proud to have created Ecocling™ film, a PVC-free recyclable film designed with the circular economy of the future in mind.
Dispenser recycling scheme
Our mission to rethink wrapping extends beyond our business. We are dedicated to lessening the industry’s environmental impact through initiatives like our dispenser recycling scheme. We collect and repurpose unwanted or broken dispensers from any brand to help reduce the amount of waste our industry produces.

Every Prowrap product is responsibly sourced or produced at our Bristol H/Q here in the UK, enabling us to reduce your supply chain carbon emissions and respond flexibly to meet your needs.
