雀巢在永續發展行動中放棄塑膠桶，改用紙張，品質街粉絲迎來重大改變

Tesco 將提供超過 200,000 個浴缸的試用。它們將在選定的商店出售，並在下週出現在貨架上。

Fans of Quality Street sweets will be able to get their hands on a new paper tub this Christmas as part of a bid to reduce the use of virgin plastics.

今年聖誕節，優質街頭糖果的粉絲將能夠獲得一個新的紙桶，作為減少原始塑膠使用的一部分。

Nestle has announced a "first-of-a-kind" design to switch the iconic plastic tubs for paper, with the aim to make the packaging more sustainable.

雀巢宣布推出「首創」設計，將標誌性的塑膠桶換成紙桶，旨在使包裝更具永續性。

More than 200,000 of the tubs will be available in a trial with Tesco, appearing on the shelves in selected stores next week.

超過 200,000 個浴缸將在 Tesco 進行試用，下週將出現在選定商店的貨架上。

The paper tub, which comes in the signature Quality Street purple, is embellished with gold foil detailing and the iconic sweet wrappers.

紙桶採用標誌性的 Quality Street 紫色，並飾有金箔細節和標誌性的甜包裝紙。

Nestle say the design means the tub will be able to be securely closed once opened, and once empty it can be put in household recycling.

雀巢表示，這種設計意味著浴缸一旦打開就能夠安全關閉，一旦倒空，就可以進行家庭回收。

The chocolate giant said the tub has been subjected to significant testing to ensure food quality and freshness while being transported and stored prior to going on sale, and feedback from the trial will then be evaluated.

這家巧克力巨頭表示，該桶已經接受了嚴格的測試，以確保上市銷售前運輸和儲存過程中的食品品質和新鮮度，然後將對試驗的回饋進行評估。

Jemma Handley, Senior Brand Manager for Quality Street, said: “We’re looking forward to seeing what Quality Street fans make of the paper tub.

Quality Street 高級品牌經理 Jemma Handley 表示：「我們期待看到 Quality Street 粉絲對紙桶的看法。

"A lot of care and hard work has gone into the trial and we’re proud to be the first major manufacturer to trial a paper tub at Christmas.

「試驗過程中投入了大量的精力和努力，我們很自豪能夠成為第一家在聖誕節試用紙桶的主要製造商。

"The beautiful design has been devised specifically for a paper product and we love how it looks, and of course, shoppers can expect the same great tasting Quality Street sweets that they know and love inside.

「美麗的設計是專門為紙製品設計的，我們喜歡它的外觀，當然，購物者可以期待他們所熟悉和喜愛的同樣美味的優質街頭糖果。

“We know there are some Quality Street fans who, controversially, like to put their wrappers back in the tub once they’ve eaten them - with the paper tub, they can put the paper wrappers back for a good reason - it can go straight into the recycling.”

「我們知道有一些優質街頭粉絲，有爭議的是，他們喜歡在吃完後將包裝紙放回桶中- 使用紙桶，他們可以將紙包裝放回桶中，這是有充分理由的- 它可以直接食用進入回收利用。

Cheryl Allen, Head of Sustainability – Confectionery Europe at Nestlé, said: “The Quality Street paper tub is an exciting innovation that we’re really proud of here at Nestlé Confectionery.

雀巢歐洲糖果業永續發展主管 Cheryl Allen 表示：「Quality Street 紙桶是一項令人興奮的創新，我們雀巢糖果公司對此感到非常自豪。

"We’re committed to making our packaging more sustainable, keeping in mind the changing needs of shoppers and advancements in technology.

「我們致力於使我們的包裝更具永續性，同時牢記購物者不斷變化的需求和技術的進步。

"Of course, with all potential packaging changes, we want to get it right, so this trial will bring us valuable information to inform our next steps as we keep pushing to reduce our use of virgin plastic.”

“當然，對於所有潛在的包裝變化，我們希望做到正確，因此這次試驗將為我們帶來寶貴的信息，為我們的下一步行動提供指導，因為我們將繼續努力減少原生塑料的使用。”

As part of the brand’s sustainability journey, in 2022, Quality Street moved to recyclable paper packaging for its twist-wrapped sweets.

作為品牌永續發展之旅的一部分，Quality Street 的扭結糖果於 2022 年改用可回收紙質包裝。

By replacing the double layer of foil and cellulose with a single paper wrap, Quality Street removed almost two billion pieces of packaging material from the brand's supply chain.

透過以單層紙包裝取代雙層箔和纖維素，Quality Street 從該品牌的供應鏈中去除了近 20 億件包裝材料。

Earlier this year, Nestle UK & Ireland announced that it would use traceable cocoa ingredients in all its UK-made chocolate.

今年早些時候，雀巢英國和愛爾蘭宣布將在其所有英國製造的巧克力中使用可追溯的可可成分。

Quality Street is now made using cocoa mass that has been specifically sourced from cocoa farming families that are part of Nestlé’s Income Accelerator Programme, aimed at helping close the living income gap of cocoa-farming families and reduce child labour risks within the supply chain.

Quality Street 現在使用專門來自可可種植家庭的可可塊製成，這是雀巢收入加速器計劃的一部分，旨在幫助縮小可可種植家庭的生活收入差距，並減少供應鏈中的童工風險。

Alongside the Quality Street paper tub trial at Tesco, shoppers will be able to buy the sweets in the plastic tub, tin, pouch, and carton at stores nationwide this Christmas.

除了 Tesco 的 Quality Street 紙桶試用之外，今年聖誕節，購物者還可以在全國各地的商店購買塑膠桶、罐頭、袋裝和紙盒裝的糖果。
