Morrisons scraps black plastic from own-brand packaging

Morrisons has removed black plastic from all of its own brand food and drink packaging.

The move accounts for almost 4000 tonnes of plastic being made more easily recyclable – which is 7.4 per cent of the plastic used at Morrisons each year.

The grocer aims to make all packaging recyclable, reusable or compostable by 2025.

Morrisons has already committed to removing 9000 tonnes of unnecessary plastic each year
