Good packaging design should do more than protect a product, it should also consider what happens to the material afterwards. That is why Shabra is proud to support the Innovation in Sustainable Packaging Design Award at this year’s Repak Resource Awards.

For us, innovation means thinking beyond the immediate use of packaging and considering recyclability, material choice, recycled content, traceability and how that packaging can fit more effectively into a circular system.

We’re looking forward to seeing the ideas and businesses helping move that conversation forward.

Christmas came early at the BWG Foodservice Christmas Showcase 🎄

It was a pleasure for the Shabra Group team to attend this year’s showcase and catch up with so many familiar faces while celebrating an incredible milestone, 25 years of BWG Foodservice serving Ireland.

A fantastic opportunity to connect, see what’s ahead for the festive season and celebrate the people and partnerships that continue to support Ireland’s foodservice industry.

Congratulations to the entire BWG Foodservice team on 25 years, and thank you for having us!

Circularity is about more than recycling. It’s about keeping valuable resources in use and strengthening supply chains.

Relying on overseas material supplies can expose businesses to shipping delays, freight costs and supply uncertainty. Local plastic reprocessing offers an opportunity to recover valuable materials, support access to recycled plastics and reduce reliance on extended supply routes.

At Shabra, we see circularity as an important part of building more resilient, resource-efficient supply chains.

Looking to strengthen your packaging supply chain? Connect with Shabra’s team to explore how our reprocessing capabilities can support your business.

Colm and Elizabeth attended the Dundalk Chamber Budget Breakfast Briefing 2027 this morning, joining local businesses to hear more about the measures announced in Budget 2027 and what they could mean for businesses across the region.

For Shabra, staying close to these conversations is important. Understanding the wider economic and business landscape helps us stay informed, anticipate change and better support the customers, partners and communities we work with.
