Tetra Pak has partnered with Sterilgarda Alimenti S.p.a., to launch what is believed to be the industry’s first one‑litre carton with a paper‑based barrier.
“When combined with plant‑based polymers, this innovation increases renewable content up to 90% while maintaining the food safety and shelf life that aseptic cartons are trusted for,” said Adolfo Orive, President and CEO, Tetra Pak. “Designed for ambient distribution, it can also reduce the carbon footprint of the package by up to 50%, as verified by the Carbon Trust. This family‑size launch shows what sustainable packaging looks like in practice: practical progress, proven performance and close collaboration across the value chain. A big thank you to Sterilgarda Alimenti, and all our colleagues and other partners who made this innovation possible.”
