Smurfit Kappa Unveils Plan For Beverage Carton Recycling Plant
Smurfit Kappa has announced that it plans to set up the first beverage carton recycling plant in the Netherlands in association with HVC and Bluemats.
The new facility will be equipped to split and sort the components of the drinks cartons – plastic, aluminium, and paper – for recycling.
Single-use coffee cups, which also have multi-layered materials, are also included in the scope of the plan, the packaging giant said.
More than half of the beverage cartons used in the Netherlands are incinerated or disposed of in general waste channels, while the remainder is exported to other countries for recycling.
