Taking circular food packaging to the next level

How Akestra™ enables heat resistant, circular PET solutions.

In this paper you will learn about the current scene for circular food packaging and how the adoption of new materials and technologies is changing the landscape. 

We will discuss state-of-the-art PET recycling and the challenges that the thin wall food packaging, hotfill, and hot beverage packaging industries are facing. To meet those challenges, we introduce Akestra™, a PET compatible, transparent and heat resistant packaging solution that will support the industry’s circular economy goals.
 
Akestra™ enables up to 90% recycled content in food packaging while significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 68% (cradle-to-grave) compared to virgin polystyrene. This corresponds to a reduction of approximately 475 kton CO₂e when replacing 100,000 tons of polystyrene.
