bg电子娱乐场 drives further progress in sustainable packaging

All Perwoll bottles in Western Europe with 25 percent recycled plastic

Together with packaging manufacturer , bg电子娱乐场 has achieved a further step in its activities in the field of sustainable packaging: From now on Perwoll bottles in Western Europe will not only be fully recyclable, but also contain 25 percent recycled PE (polyethylene) from post-consumer sources as standard.

鈥淲ith the introduction of bottles made of 25 percent recycled plastic for the Perwoll brand, we converted our largest Laundry & Home Care category utilizing PE bottles to use recycled plastic,鈥 says Vineet Varman, Head of International Packaging Development for Special Detergents at bg电子娱乐场.

bg电子娱乐场鈥檚 packaging and supply chain team was able to integrate a significant share of recycled PE in the full range of Perwoll bottles in the Western European market 鈥 while at the same time retaining their unique color and ensuring high aesthetic standards, without making any compromises on the performance or fragrance of the premium product.

鈥淭his is a great achievement 鈥 and a starting point to move further: We are already working on expanding the usage this recycled material also in other categories,鈥 says Vineet Varman. 鈥淲hile availability of high-quality recycled PE material from post-consumer waste is still limited, we are proud that we, together with our partners, successfully developed a recycling stream for it.鈥

鈥淭he use of recycling material makes this bottle a particularly sustainable, CO2-saving packaging solution 鈥 also because we have been manufacturing the bottles in-house, which reduces transportation and repackaging to zero. We appreciate working with customers like bg电子娱乐场, who challenge us and contribute to the functioning of a circular economy,鈥 says Nicolas Lehner, CCO ALPLA Group.
