Expanding Access to Healthy Dairy Milk

At Tetra Pak, we believe the most effective way to tackle the global food security and nutrition challenge is to build sustainable food value chains. Tetra Pak® Aseptic cartons provide 6 layers of protection to keep the dairy milk inside safe from light, oxygen, bacteria and more without the need for preservatives. For decades, our innovative aseptic cartons have safely stored food and beverage products like dairy milk without the need for refrigeration. In fact, shelf-stable milk stays safe at room temperature for more than six months when unopened, enabling a broader geographic distribution and more flexible utilization for schools across the country.

Continuing to Focus on Nutrition

Healthy food options are paramount for a learning environment. Our brand promise, PROTECTS WHAT’S GOOD™, speaks to our commitment to provide healthy food to people around the world, and our Shelf-Stable Milk for Schools initiative is one way we’re delivering on that promise.

Promoting Sustainability

Schools use about 403,000,000 gallons of milk annually¹, making them a perfect place to implement a more sustainable dairy milk packaging option. Because aseptic cartons require no chilled delivery or storage, and are recyclable, they can help lower greenhouse gas emissions by 28.5%¹. ¹J. Public Health
