The first fully renewable carton can be found on retail shelves in Finland. The Tetra Rex biobased package is created purely out of a combination of plastics derived from plants and paperboard.
Finnish dairy producer Valio is the first company to go to market with the carton. Releasing it on a trial run, the company chose it as the temporary container for its lactose-free semi-skimmed milk drink. After a few months, Valio will use customer feedback to decide whether to adopt the carton more broadly.
