Fully Recyclable Rice Packs for Aldi

摘要

Supporting the retailer's aim for 100 of its own-label packaging being reusable, recyclable or compostable by the end of the year, the launch of Coveris' fully recyclable MonoFlexE for two SKUs is a significant development in the rice category. Previously packed in a non-recyclable, OPP to PE mixed laminate, Aldi has switched to Coveris' fully recyclable MonoFlexE monomaterial PE to PE laminate packaging for their own-brand Worldwide Foods 1kg basmati rice and 1 kg brown rice SKUs. The move to MonoFlexE will enable circa. 30 tonnes of film to enter the soft plastic recycling stream annually. The MonoFlexE packaging launched in January 2022 for 50 of the two SKUs, with the remaining 50 to switch throughout January and February.
