Todd S.’s Post

You may have already spotted these on shelf in Canada. We’re #PepsiCoProud to work alongside our colleagues in the US to make paperboard designs a reality. Congrats to the entire team and thank you Todd S. for helping lead the way in Canada and beyond! PepsiCo is the first beverage company to commit to a North American roll out of paper-based solutions to replace plastic rings across multipacks that have traditionally used plastic rings. This is a key part of PepsiCo’s pep+ (#PepsiCoPositive) sustainable packaging journey to ensure packaging never becomes waste. The new packaging is easy to implement on shelf for customers, has consumer-friendly branded-design, is made from recycled materials and is recyclable. This conversion to more sustainable packaging will include brands like Pepsi, Pepsi Zero, Gatorade, amongst others.   https://lnkd.in/ea8yYxxs Bilal Khan Alirio Briceno Nikita Ajit Kumar Martin Sosa, Eng.

PepsiCo is the first beverage company to commit to a North American rollout of paper-based solutions to replace plastic rings across multipacks that have traditionally used plastic rings. You may have already spotted these on shelves in many markets in Canada!    This is a key part of PepsiCo’s pep+ (#PepsiCoPositive) sustainable packaging journey to ensure packaging never becomes waste. The paperboard designs will roll out in a phased, regional approach across the US, building upon PepsiCo’s progress in Canada where the transition to paperboard is beginning to roll out.    The new packaging is easy to implement on shelves for customers, has a consumer-friendly branded-design, is made from recycled materials, and is recyclable. This conversion to more sustainable packaging will include brands like Pepsi, Pepsi Zero, Gatorade, amongst others.   https://lnkd.in/ea8yYxxs Todd S.

Pepsi’s pep+ packaging positions paper vs plastic… (say that 3 times fast) PepsiCo is replacing plastic rings on beverage multipacks with paper-based solutions in the US and Canada. This transition is part of PepsiCo's pep+ sustainable packaging initiative, aiming to eliminate waste from packaging and achieve a 50% reduction in virgin plastic usage by 2030. Critics argue that paper-based packaging may be less durable, and production can have its own environmental impacts. https://lnkd.in/erZpAbeA #sustainability #packaging #papervsplastic

Another step in the right direction for Cadbury owner Mondelēz International who announced they hit a milestone of reducing virgin plastic in its UK operations by over 1,000 tonnes in 2023.

Walmart have a look to our partner Plastic Bank . We TS Spirits Distillery created the first commodity - a particoular gin line called CAPJARI ( www.capjari.com) that closes the circularity loop around ocean bound plastic waste : step Nr 1 become first spirit dressed with ocean bound plastic label of partner UPM Raflatac , in order to stimulate consumers to choose products with recycled plastic instead of virgin ; 2nd step , finance with each bottle organizations like Plastic Bank that opens since 10 years recycling centers for ocean bound plastics in under developed countries fighting poverty at the same time ,using value of plastic waste to pay salaries and create new jobs for plastic collectors . And last but not least , for a world free of greenwashing , certify like Plastic Bank is doing with blockchain technology all transactions ( recycled plastic sold to companies like Coca Cola , Henkel , Shell and the salaries ) . Not bad !! Education to recycling + new jobs , all connected to a bottle of spirit .Today it is an enjoyable Gin , tomorrow it can be another commodity . So Walmart you’re on the right way but you could do more : for example put our Capjari on your shelves and give a great sign of “purpose marketing” ?

Kraft Heinz aims to create 100% recyclable, compostable, or reusable packaging by 2025, as well as strive to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 while halving emissions by 2030. The company strives to replace 15% of its U.S. PET rigid plastic packaging portfolio with post-consumer recycled content by 2025. It is building upon existing work within the U.S., U.K., and Canada, to increase recycled content within their packaging. https://lnkd.in/gVKkJTTs I have been told a few times that retailers are "stupid" for limiting the use of plastic grocery bags to consumers, yet not doing anything to limit use of plastics and other wasteful and polluting packaging in the goods they sell. Yet there is a concerted effort among brands to do just that. Companies like Kraft Heinz are working with their packaging vendors to come up with safe and earth friendly alternatives to their traditional packaging and you will see this in years to come. #SustainablePackaging #SmartPackaging #InnovativePackaging #Transbuyer #itsallaboutthepackaging #MarketingThruYourPackaging #WhatYourPackagingSaysAboutYourCompany #Branding At Transbuyer.com we help brands transform their product packaging to increase their brand visibility.
