Pioneering a whole-of-product lifecycle approach to sustainable packaging.
We’ve pioneered a whole-of-product lifecycle approach to sustainable packaging for everyone from global brands to local producers. We integrate supply chain efficiencies and sustainable practices into everything we design and manufacture. The circle starts with a lifecycle assessment to ensure our customers can make the most sustainable choices. Processing our own local recycled material has seen us bring millions of 100% recycled milk, shampoo and personal care bottles into the world over recent years.

Eliminating single-use through Reuse solutions.
Aiming to eliminate single-use through Reuse solutions, our extensive network and investment in technology ensures vital resources can be swiftly collected, sorted, cleaned and redistributed at scale. We’ve helped Australian fresh food producers and supermarkets achieve their sustainability goals. Our pooling systems to date have replaced over 150 million single-use boxes with 5 million reusable plastic crates. Our Retail Accessories business further boosts our Reuse capabilities by reusing more than 1.2 million garment hangers every day.

Reducing waste through Recycling solutions.
We reduce waste through Recycling solutions by viewing it as a resource and its potential to create ongoing value. This closed-loop approach also demands responsible disposal, and the inclusion of local recycled content in packaging. To deliver this at scale, we collaborate with industry partners and Government to continually boost our post-consumer and post-industrial Recycling capabilities. This ensures a circular solution where locally sourced recycled materials feeds our Packaging and Reuse customers.
