Unilever is now using packaging made from recyclable paper for its Carte D'Or ice cream brand. Initially only in the UK, all of the brand's ice cream flavours will no longer be sold in plastic packaging. The switch means that the company uses 93 per cent less plastic per pack.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201eFor over 40 years, Carte D'Or has endeavoured to make delicious desserts from the best ingredients that we source in a sustainable way. We are proud that we have now switched to paper cups to help customers reduce their plastic packaging footprint at home.\u201c<\/p>

A certain amount of plastic is still required in the packaging to ensure that the ice cream remains fresh. Flavour and quality should also not be compromised and the packaging had to remain stable and durable. This is why the company uses Inner layer of the cups and the lid remain plastic<\/strong>, which, however, does not influence the possibility of recycling for consumers.\u00a0<\/p>

There is also a plastic seal to ensure that the ice cream stays fresh and safe in the packaging. At present, this seal is not recyclable, but a Team of experts working on the switch to a fully recyclable solution<\/strong>.<\/p>

The company intends to use the knowledge and insights gained from the development and introduction of the new packaging to drive forward its company-wide efforts to reduce plastic packaging worldwide.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
