Circular Food Packaging Tray Initiative in Australia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Certified-circular solutions for food packaging\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Advancing the circularity of essential plastic packaging takes collaboration throughout the value chain. In its second food-grade plastics circularity project with ExxonMobil, SEE will divert approximately 900 tonnes of plastic waste annually from landfill or incineration in Australia. In this collaboration, CRYOVAC\u00ae brand preformed food packaging trays are being made with resins leveraging ExxonMobil\u2019s advanced recycling technology and mass balance attribution.<\/strong> The resins and tray manufacturing are certified to the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification PLUS standard, and the trays are curbside recyclable within Australia. As one of the first such initiatives for fresh red meat trays in Australia, the collaboration addresses the critical challenge in driving circularity for food-grade plastics that have strict hygiene and performance requirements for food protection and distribution.<\/p>\n
