kp Infinity® Tavola™ brings heat retention and recyclability to pizza packaging
Klöckner Pentaplast (kp) is expanding its kp Infinity® foodservice portfolio with kp Infinity® Tavola™, a recyclable pizza packaging solution designed to help pizzas stay hotter for longer while enhancing protection and presentation.
Launching in the UK and selected European markets from September 2026, kp Infinity® Tavola™ has been developed to help quick-service restaurants (QSRs), pizzerias, and delivery-led brands address one of their biggest challenges: ensuring pizza reaches consumers in the same condition as when it left the oven. It offers a high-tech alternative to traditional cardboard pizza packaging, using a precisely engineered fully recyclable expanded polypropylene (EPP) structure to retain heat while keeping oil, grease, and food residue inside the pack.

It offers a high-tech alternative to traditional cardboard pizza packaging, using a precisely engineered fully recyclable expanded polypropylene (EPP) structure to retain heat while keeping oil, grease, and food residue inside the pack.
Comparative testing
demonstrated that kp Infinity® Tavola™ kept pizzas up to 7.3°C hotter after five
minutes compared with traditional alternatives. Even after an hour, it was still
hotter.
Each lightweight box offers
increased robustness and product protection. The box consists of two identical
interlocking parts, giving foodservice operators flexibility across dine-in,
takeaway and delivery occasions.
For takeaway and delivery, they combine to
create a secure, lidded box while for dine-in operations, the box
can be opened to support service and presentation.
Available in a 12-inch format, kp Infinity® Tavola™ is fully recyclable within appropriate polypropylene collection and recycling streams. Unlike cardboard pizza boxes, it does not absorb oil or allow cheese to stick to the pack, helping avoid food contamination that can complicate paper-based recycling, and helping operators navigate evolving sustainability requirements and recycling expectations.
Austin Schwarz, Sales Director, UK&I at kp revealed the innovation was specifically designed to address the challenges foodservice operators face today, saying, “We spend a lot of time talking and collaborating with customers and stakeholders from across the industry. They tell us they’re being asked to do more than ever before. Operators are under pressure to deliver food quickly, maintain quality during transportation and create a better customer experience.
“kp Infinity® Tavola™ brings those needs together in one versatile design. It arrives flat, needs no assembly and provides operators with flexibility across multiple service occasions. Early trials showed that operators immediately recognised the space- and time-saving potential and how kp Infinity® Tavola™ helps pizzas stay hotter for longer during transportation. Its clean exterior and contemporary appearance also help premium operators create a more distinctive experience, whether customers dine in, collect or order for delivery.”
The launch builds on the success of the kp Infinity® Hotpacs® range and extends the portfolio into the pizza category, providing pizza operators with a packaging solution designed around the demands of modern foodservice and delivery.
kp Infinity® Tavola™ also supports brands looking to differentiate themselves and build storytelling through packaging, as larger orders can be customised with embossing.
