An insider’s guide to more efficient food packaging operations

As the market for shelf-stable packaged foods grows, many producers are looking for ways to expand production or launch new products and formats to seize the opportunities. We spoke to a Tetra Pak expert who has long global experience in the food industry, about how food manufacturers can optimise their food packaging operations.

Why Tetra Recart is the environmentally sound alternative

Today’s consumers and producers are increasingly demanding food packaging that has less impact on the planet. Our infographic breaks down the four main reasons why Tetra Recart is the smart alternative for shelf-stable food. As an example, four lifecycle assessments conducted in the US, the EU and Oceania between 2014 and 2021 show that Tetra Recart has 80% less climate impact vs steel cans.
