Berry Global Group, Inc. announced its collaboration with Mondelēz International to supply packaging containing recycled plastic for Philadelphia brand cream cheese.
The package contains plastic material recovered using advanced recycling technology from Berry’s partnership with SABIC, announced earlier this year.
“By recovering and diverting plastic that would have otherwise been sent to landfill or incineration, we are working towards our common goal of promoting a circular economy,” said Jean-Marc Galvez, president of Berry’s Consumer Packaging International Division.
The announcement adds to Berry’s list of initiatives to advance towards a more sustainable future.
These initiatives include investment in both mechanical and chemical recycling, the innovative use of recycled material in products, and global commitments to address plastic waste in the environment.
Last year, Berry committed that 100% of its fast-moving consumer goods packaging would be reusable, recyclable, or compostable by the year 2025.
