Mengniu developed its first all-PE yogurt pouch with Dow’s Innate TF-Bope resins “to help ensure that packaging maintains its superior appearance and productiveness,” said Dow.
The new packaging solution, which is designed for recyclability, allows previously “hard-to-recycle” packaging to be integrated into closed-loop recycling systems. This is achieved through responsible recycling and mechanical recycling technology, providing consumers with more options for sustainable packaging.
Bambang Candra, Asia Pacific commercial vice president of Dow packaging and speciality plastics, said: “This partnership with Mengniu is a milestone for both brands to pioneer all-PE dairy packaging designed for recyclability in China. The country’s ambition to work towards zero-waste cities has changed how it tackles plastic waste.”
Mengniu aims to achieve 100% technically recyclable packaging by 2025, seeking to adopt low-carbon packaging in all of its product lines.
Mengniu introduced its yogurt pouches with PE packaging for the first time during the 2023 International Dairy Forum, held from 4-7 August in Hohhot, China. These pouches will soon be accessible at supermarkets throughout the city.
