Product Description
These Colpac sandwich packs are made from kraft paperboard with a PLA (polylactic acid) window panel derived from plant-based sources. The combination allows customers to see the sandwich filling at point of sale without the need for petroleum-based plastic components. Both elements — the paperboard and the PLA window — are certified compostable under industrial composting conditions, making them a practical option for operators working towards reduced-plastic or lower-waste packaging commitments.
In a food-to-go or café setting, the clear window does the straightforward job of showing the product without staff needing to open the pack or describe the filling. The kraft construction holds its shape reliably under typical counter display and chilled cabinet conditions. Like all paper-based formats, these packs are not suited to prolonged moisture exposure or condensation, so they are best used for cold-fill applications rather than hot-hold service.
- Clear PLA window allows customers to see fillings without opening the pack
- Both materials certified compostable in industrial composting facilities
- Consistent pack format suits sandwich line assembly and uniform display stacking
- Supplied in 500s, appropriate for moderate- to high-volume daily production
- Free from petroleum-based plastic components throughout
On a practical note, storage in a cool, dry environment is important to maintain the integrity of both the board and the PLA window before use. These are not heat-sealed units, so they are appropriate for sandwiches and cold wraps rather than anything requiring a sealed or grease-resistant pack.
They are well suited to independent cafés, sandwich bars, farm shops, and contract catering operations looking for a presentable pack with credible sustainability credentials. Operators with very high daily volumes may want to consider whether larger case quantities offer better value per unit.
If you are reviewing your food-to-go packaging range and want to talk through which formats fit your menu and service style, we are glad to help.

Frequently Asked Questions
- No — these are cold-fill packs designed for chilled or ambient sandwiches and wraps. The kraft board and PLA window are not rated for heat, steam, or grease-heavy fillings, so a different pack format would be needed for hot-hold or toasted applications.
- Both the kraft board and the PLA window require an industrial composting facility to break down within the certified timeframe. They are not suited to home composting bins, and operators should confirm their waste contractor accepts industrially compostable packaging before switching to this format.
- For a café or sandwich bar producing a moderate daily volume, a case of 500 offers a practical working stock without excessive storage demands. Higher-volume sites running large daily sandwich counts may find it worth discussing bulk order options with our team to keep unit costs in check.
