Sustainable Packaging News

Most of us don’t think about what happens after we throw plastic in the bin. But at Berry Global, that’s just the beginning of the story. We recently stepped inside their brand new facilities in Leamington Spa to see how CleanStream® technology is redefining plastic recycling. This isn’t just about waste reduction—it’s about creating a true circular economy where polypropylene (PP) is recovered, reprocessed, and turned back into high-quality packaging. Walking through the process, it’s clear that every step is designed for efficiency and sustainability. The technology behind CleanStream® ensures that used plastic isn’t just downcycled or discarded but actually given a second life. Seeing the transformation firsthand—from discarded material to a product back on the shelf—was a powerful reminder of what’s possible when innovation meets sustainability. This is the kind of change the industry needs. A future where plastic doesn’t end up in landfills but stays in the loop. And with solutions like CleanStream®, that future is already in motion. 🎥 Watch the full story and see how Berry Global is redefining the future of sustainable packaging. #SustainablePackagingNews #SPN #Sustainability #Recycling #CircularEconomy #BerryGlobal #CleanStream #SustainablePackaging #Polypropylene

Simple packaging, made from a single material, is easier to recycle, cheaper to recycle, taxed at a lower rate and makes better recyclate so it is more sustainable. Perhaps, like so much in life, when it comes to packaging, simple is best. https://lnkd.in/evKp8AfG #SustainablePackaging #recyclability #MetalPackaging #sustainability #CircularEconomy #RecycledMaterials #ResourceEfficiency #Aluminium #BeveragePackaging
