FrieslandCampina To Introduce 100% Recycled PET Bottles
FrieslandCampina plans to make bottles from 100% recycled PET (rPET), beginning February 2021, for its brands sold in the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom and Hungary.
This move will make the Dutch dairy cooperative the first within the sector to switch to a circular economy for bottles, the company added.
Patrick van Baal, global director of packaging development at FrieslandCampina, said that their ambition is to become “fully circular”.
He added that the dairy giant must switch to packaging that is ‘”recyclable and/or reusable” to achieve its sustainability goals.
