The joint investment, over €2.5 million, showcases both companies' dedication to sustainable waste management practices. Tetra Pak's contribution to the initiative extends beyond financial support. The company brings its expertise in recycling technologies and extensive knowledge derived from longstanding collaborations with recycling solution suppliers worldwide.
The establishment of the recycling plant for carton packages in Egypt is expected to have significant impacts. The new facility will significantly augment the recycling capacity for carton packages in Egypt, promoting a more efficient and sustainable waste management system. Tetra Pak's commitment to collaborating with industry players and relevant stakeholders demonstrates the company's dedication to fostering the development and implementation of effective waste management policies and practices.
The successful establishment of the recycling plant marks a milestone in Tetra Pak's efforts to increase carton package recycling. We aim to build on this momentum and continue collaborating with industry stakeholders and local authorities to drive sustainable waste management policies and practices in Egypt and beyond.
