Schwarz Group Increases Recycling Target For Private-Label Packaging

Schwarz Group has announced that it is seeking to use an average of 25% recycled material in the private label packaging across its Lidl and Kaufland retail divisions by 2025.

The move forms part of its group-wide plastic strategy, REset Plastic.

An average of 13% less plastic is used in the private label packaging of the Lidl and Kaufland retail divisions across all countries, including omitting disposable plastic lids for 500-gram yoghurt pots and the use of recyclable stickers instead of polybags in the fruit and vegetable area.
