More Sustainable Beverage Cartons with Mono-material Barrier Packaging.

Zotefoams, a leader in cellular materials technology, has made significant progress in developing ReZorce, a mono-material barrier packaging substrate for beverage cartons. The company has partnered with Refresco, a major beverage solutions provider, to develop and conduct in-market trials for ReZorce cartons. ReZorce offers the potential for circularity in the market and is compatible with standard household recycling streams. ReZorce cartons use less energy and water compared to traditional cartons and have a lower global warming potential. Zotefoams has also formed a coalition with other companies in the industry to bring ReZorce to market as a circular alternative to composite cartons. Südpack Verpackungen has agreed to provide a potential capacity of up to 100 million ReZorce cartons annually. The progress of ReZorce towards commercialization is seen as a milestone and a sustainable alternative to traditional cartons. [Extracted from the article]
