As part of an ongoing commitment to sustainability, Sayreville-based food packaging company Sabert Corp. plans to eliminate all intentionally added per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from its portfolio by the end of 2023.

In a Jan. 23 press release, the company said its entire line of food packaging products – including all future items and customer-specific product designs – will be completely free of PFAS, which are potentially harmful substances known as “forever chemicals” because they never break down in the environment and have been linked to numerous health issues, including immune system suppression and increased cancer risk.
