AVI Introduces Sustainable Snacks in April to Celebrate Earth Month
Can enjoying a great snack help to make the world a more sustainable place? Absolutely. AVI is introducing a variety of Sustainable Snacks throughout our cafés and fresh food vending machines all month long.
Our cafés feature a variety of delightful pretzels that will keep you going all day. The packaging, made from a minimum of 50% post consumer recycled content is a part of our ongoing efforts to buy green products when possible. To obtain the most mileage from the container, bring it home and reuse it around the home for leftover foods or to store small objects like nails, screws, pins and more. The containers are endorsed by the Green Restaurant Association and can be tossed in a recycling bin when you are done using them.
In our fresh food vending machines, AVI is introducing two trail mixes packaged in Nature Friendly 100% compostable cups. The cups are made from Polylactic Acid (PLA) which is a biodegradable polymer derived from corn. Sweet & Salty and Apple Yogurt trail mixes are available in these innovative cups. After use, the cups and lids are 100% compostable – which means it will be completely gone in about 50 – 100 days in properly managed composting facilities. Be sure to remove the label before placing in your compost bin.
Thank you for your interest in AVI’s Sustainable Snacks – snacks that sustain you and the environment. For more information on AVI and our environmental initiatives, check back soon.
