Aldi UK Launches First Packaging-free Products Trial
Aldi UK has launched a trial selling its first packaging-free private brand products to help customers shop more sustainably. The trial is available at one store in Ulverston, Cumbria, England, but if successful, Aldi will look to develop its refillable options in other stores in the future. Four household staples – basmati rice, brown rice, penne pasta, and wholewheat fusilli – are available to buy loose in store.
The move could remove more than 130 tonnes – or more than 21 million pieces – of plastic annually from stores.
