Ecologic sustainable packaging has an outer shell made of 100% recycled cardboard that can be recycled with other paper. The compostable outer shell holds an inner pouch made of Number 4 type plastic. The inner pouch uses less than 30% of the plastic required for jugs and it is also recyclable.
The packaging is now used for milk products, but other liquids like wine, juice and cleaning products are on the list. The Ecologic sustainable packaging is easy to separate for recycling: cardboard in one place, plastic in another. It also has a pleasing look that should help it gain market acceptance.
