More than 47.9 million U.S. households can now recycle cartons thanks to efforts led by the Carton Council, a group of carton manufacturers committed to reducing the environmental impact of cartons. This is an increase of 128% in just three years.
The combibloc EcoPlus carton pack generates less CO2, and is now also available with the very lightweight and therefore extremely resource efficient combiCap screw cap – a packaging solution that combines environmentally friendly features and exceptional convenience.
Rapidly renewable fiber is sustainably-sourced from tree plantations in regions like Southeast Asia, whose tropical climate year-round allows for accelerated tree growth and shortened maturity cycles for harvesting.
Clearly Clean Products, LLC(www.clearlyclean.com), introduces a recyclable Modified Atmosphere Package (MAP) tray for meat, poultry, entrées and kebobs. The FDA-compliant tray utilizes a patented process of applying a peelable, thin liner to an RPET tray (the same material as water bottles). The patented, printed liner provides barrier protection to maintain shelf life and can be customized to meet marketing objectives.
The Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC), a project of sustainability nonprofit organization, GreenBlue (www.greenblue.org), announces additional participants in the soft launch of its pioneering How2Recycle on-package recycling labeling system.
