Chips brand Smith’s has launched a new flavour reminiscent of spicy-hot chicken wings.

Smith’s Hot Wings Chips include an injection of chilli and other spices – a flavour creation which responds to consumer demand for spicier foods.

The launch has been supported by digital and social channels as well as in-store and catalogue activity in time for the football season.

The product is available in a 170g pack size, only in Coles.

Following the voluntary administration of Recycling Plastics Australia and confirmation that no Commonwealth packaging scheme will be introduced this term, voices from across the packaging and recycling value chain have delivered a blunt assessment of what is at stake.

Pact Group CEO and managing director Sanjay Dayal has advised the board that he intends to leave the company, with an executive search now under way for his successor.

With a Commonwealth packaging scheme ruled out this term, pressure is building ahead of the 18 September Environment Ministers Meeting, as industry, recyclers and environmental groups demand clarity on what meaningful national reform can still be delivered – and when.
