Mondi's New 100% Recyclable StripPouch Wins Awards
Mondi’s four-year effort with German cleaning products maker Werner & Mertz GmbH to develop a fully recyclable, flexible, stand-up pouch for W&M’s Frosch-brand laundry detergent is paying dividends. The project applied Cradle to Cradle (C2C) principles to assess every aspect of the product, from design to optimal end-of-life options, to close the packaging loop.
The resulting product, called StripPouch, recently earned certification from two independent bodies for being 100% recyclable, and has been honored with several industry awards. The product’s first commercial application of Werner & Mertz’s Frosch-brand liquid detergents, is anticipated to be on store shelves by the end of this year.
