Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Codfather's Plaice," a popular fish and chip shop in Cardiff, needed to move away from plastic pots to meet customer demand for more sustainable packaging. They found their previous paper pots would often get soggy with mushy peas or curry sauce.
"These 4oz paper sauce pots from 4 Aces have been brilliant. They're sturdy, they don't leak, and our customers have noticed and appreciated the switch. It makes our packaging look and feel more premium without any extra hassle for us."
Robert Evans – Owner
The switch helped The Codfather's Plaice reduce its single-use plastic waste and completely eliminated complaints about leaky sauce pots.

Keeping It Going

Explore more from 4 AcesWhy a Waxed Lining is Your Best Friend Against Leaks
Ever wondered what makes these pots so much better at holding liquids than standard paper? It’s all down to the food-safe waxed lining. Think of it like a quality raincoat for your condiments. A normal paper cup is like a cotton jumper – it will absorb moisture and eventually let it soak through, leading to a soggy, weak container. The waxed lining on these pots, however, creates an invisible, waterproof barrier. It makes the sauce bead up on the surface instead of soaking in, ensuring that even after sitting for a while, the pot remains strong, rigid, and completely leak-proof. It’s a simple bit of science that saves you from messy bags and unhappy customers.
