Unilever has announced a partnership with start-up company Ioniqa and the largest global producer of PET resin Indorama Ventures to pioneer a new technology that converts PET waste back into virgin grade material for use in food packaging.

Trademarked, the SureHandle PET container, it gives brand owners significant shelf differentiation, handling convenience and aesthetics that were not previously possible.

“Current technology on the market makes it possible to have 30 percent bio-PET,” says John Bissell, CEO of Origin Materials. “Our breakthrough technology aims to reach 100 percent bio-based bottles at commercial scale."
