Tetra Pak launches caps made from recycled polymers for carton packaging

Source：Adsale Plastics Network Date ：2022-01-27 Editor ：JK

Tetra Pak, in partnership with Elvir, a subsidiary of Savencia Fromage & Dairy, has become the first carton packaging player in the food and beverage industry to launch a cap using certified recycled polymers.

Elle & Vire has chosen the HeliCap 23 cap solution to complement its cream products, which are distributed in Tetra Brik Aseptic 1L Slim carton packages.

This one-step resealable screw cap is manufactured at Tetra Pak’s Châteaubriant plant in Loire-Atlantique, France, a site that has been awarded the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) Advanced Products certification and boosted by a €100 million investment to accelerate the transition to the production of tethered caps.

The new caps integrate attributed recycled polymers.

The HeliCap 23 cap offers consumers ease of opening and features a clearly visible tamper evidence ring, providing reassurance that the product hasn’t been opened before.

Chakib Kara, Managing Director France & Benelux at Tetra Pak, commented, "We are extremely proud of the work being done alongside Elle & Vire. Both teams are inspired and motivated by a shared commitment - to develop more sustainable food systems. Together, we are contributing to making recycling more economically viable, while addressing increasing consumer preference for responsible companies.”

The new caps using attributed recycled polymers are manufactured under the RSB chain of custody attribution method. This means that the plastics are made of a mix of recycled and non-recycled materials, with the corresponding mass of recycled materials tracked throughout the Tetra Pak supply chain.

This is verified by a third-party auditor according to the RSB Chain of Custody Procedure, which forms part of the RSB Advanced Products certification.

Annick Renou, Global Marketing Director at Elvir, added: “By adopting caps which integrate attributed recycled polymers, Elle & Vire is a pioneer in circularity. Based on recent research, approximately three in four French consumers are concerned with environmental issues, and the same number says that their purchase intention increases if a brand is addressing sustainability issues.”
