At Sonoco, we’re committed to producing the right packaging for a better world.
The design of Sonoco’s EnviroCan™ allows it to meet a brand’s ongoing challenge of balancing responsible materials sourcing with product and food safety. This design also allows it to be recycled in the steel stream in the U.S. and is eligible for the relevant recycling label in Canada.
But today, we face a new challenge. Unfortunately, many consumers don’t have access to recycle EnviroCan™ through their municipal recycling programs, meaning our paper container, like many other packages, is under-recycled.
Register for the webinar today to learn about how partnerships and education can help increase recyclability for under recycled packaging types.
