One aspect of Greiner Packaging’s sustainability strategy is reducing its material usage, a goal it has been pursuing for some time now. The company aims to produce packaging that exhibits the same functionality and improved recyclability when compared with previous solutions, in order to cut back on plastic from virgin materials as well as carbon emissions.
Greiner Packaging achieved a material saving of 20% for the new Greek yogurt cup, having reduced the solution’s weight by making adjustments to technical conditions in production.
