Tetra Rex carton made from plant-based, renewable materials
Tetra Pak has announced the launch of the Tetra Rex carton which, according to the company, will be the first to be made entirely from plant-based, renewable packaging materials.
The carton will have bio-based, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films and bio-based, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) caps, both derived from sugar cane, in addition to Forest Stewardship Council (FSC T) certified paperboard.
Developed in partnership with Braskem, a biopolymers producer, the package will be commercially available in early 2015. Customers using the standard 1 L Tetra Rex with TwistCap OSO 34 can transfer to the new version without any additional investment or modification to their filling machines.
