The US-based food and beverage firm said in a statement it would “aggressively pursue” innovative alternatives to virgin plastics in a bid to meet the new aim, which comes after Kraft Heinz pledged to make its iconic Heinz Tomato Ketchup Bottles “fully circular” by 2022.

Alternatives to notoriously hard-to-recycle packaging such as single-use condiment packets, multi-laminate Capri Sun juice pouches and the packaging of individually wrapped Kraft Singles cheese will have to be found as part of the aim.[/fusion_text][fusion_button link=”https://www.edie.net/news/5/Kraft-Heinz-unveils-new-circular-packaging-strategy-in-plastic-reduction-drive/?utm_source=dailynewsletter,%20edie%20daily%20newsletter&utm_medium=email,%20email&utm_content=news&utm_campaign=dailynewsletter,%2030a61aed47-dailynewsletter_COPY_355″ color=”default” size=”” stretch=”” type=”” shape=”” target=”_blank” title=”” gradient_colors=”|” gradient_hover_colors=”|” accent_color=”” accent_hover_color=”” bevel_color=”” border_width=”1px” icon=”” icon_position=”left” icon_divider=”no” modal=”” animation_type=”0″ animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”1″ animation_offset=”” alignment=”” class=”” id=””]Read full article[/fusion_button][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
