Modernising existing dairy processing equipment can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40-49%1 , depending on the type of line, according to a new study by Tetra Pak. Importantly, these reductions don’t necessarily require a full-line overhaul and use solutions that are currently on the market. The study also examined how improving existing equipment lines can lead to substantial cuts in emissions, product losses, and operating costs. The new Dairy Processing Impact Assessment, independently reviewed by the Carbon Trust, uses a methodology aligned with leading international avoided emissions frameworks.2 It quantifies…

Tetra Pak has taken another step forwards in sustainable packaging by expanding its innovative paper‑based barrier technology to high‑speed Tetra Pak® A3/Speed filling lines, with Maeil Dairies becoming the first producer globally to implement the solution for its soy milk. This milestone aligns with a broader shift across the food and beverage industry, where producers are accelerating the transition towards low-carbon, renewable packaging materials. Developed to replace the aluminium foil layer used in aseptic cartons, the new paper‑based barrier maintains comparable levels of food protection and shelf life. When combined…

As a part of its long-term ambition to develop the world’s most sustainable food package2, Tetra Pak has introduced an innovative solution in its aseptic beverage cartons where the traditional aluminium foil layer is replaced with a new paper-based barrier. This innovation increases the paper content in beverage cartons to approximately 80% and, when combined with plant-based polymers, increases the traceable renewable content of a carton up to 92% – cutting the carbon footprint by up to 43%1. By simplifying the material structure from three to two main materials: paper…
