Our Commitment

We always think about the broader impact of our operations on the environment and society, and we believe recycling is an investment in our future. When recycled beverage cartons are given a new life, we help protect natural resources, reduce climate impact and contribute to communities.

Yes, cartons are recyclable!

We're committed to sustainable carton recycling and work to promote and encourage more effective, widespread recycling programs. In 2009, Tetra Pak joined together with other carton manufactures in the U.S. to establish the Carton Council, an organization committed to limiting the number of cartons that become waste. Through this unified effort, we seek to build a sustainable infrastructure for carton recycling and continue growing carton recycling throughout the U.S.

Did you know? U.S. carton recycling access has grown nearly 350% since 2009.

Our global approach to recycling

At Tetra Pak, we take a value chain approach to recycling – from raising consumer awareness and driving collection and sorting to facilitating recycling and developing end markets.

Did you know? In the U.S., recycled cartons are made into tissue products, writing paper and even green building materials.

Embracing the circular economy

Our packaging, processing and services solutions optimize the use of resources. Therefore, the principles of circularity are at the very heart of our business. Our value chain approach and partnerships are helping to make our economy circular.

Did you know? The average Tetra Pak carton is made from 75% paperboard, a renewable material from responsibly managed forests. We also offer plant-based caps made from sugarcane, further increasing the amount of renewable materials.
