Mars Wrigley UK’s Maltesers Boxes Fully Recyclable After Switch to Metsä Board Dispersion Coated Barrier Board
The company has replaced the old multi-layer box design, where the PE plastic liner covered the box, with a dispersion coated barrier paperboard. The company says the new design will reduce its annual plastic usage by 82 tonnes.
The new Maltesers box uses Metsä Board’s dispersion coated barrier board, which is fully recyclable, biodegradable and compostable and made of fresh fibers, 100% traceable to their origin in sustainably managed Northern European forests.
