What the jury said
This packaging innovation, not yet launched on the market, is a sustainable drinks cartons alternative.
The packaging consists of 100% recycled HDPE. A patented technology enables a layer to be applied during extrusion. The layer provides barrier properties and even allows the use of 30-70% mechanically recycled HDPE.
HDPE packaging has been proven to reduce environmental impacts such as water and energy consumption by around 50% compared to conventional composite beverage cartons.
