Sustainable packaging format provides a lightweight, wraparound solution that offers a 40% weight saving, zero waste and full recyclability.

In the existing climate of the UK packaging industry, demand for such formats has increased, the company said.

Coveris’ latest investment comes following the recent launch of its Pack Positive sustainability strategy, which targets packaging recyclability and waste reduction.

The company’s linerless growth model works to eliminate unnecessary weight and waste through smarter packaging and supports the transition from less sustainable formats such as sleeves.
