Spendrups invests in recycled plastic together with Trioworld

Spendrups, one of Sweden’s leading breweries, has, in collaboration with Trioworld, switched to 30 percent consumer recycled plastic in all stretch and shrink film. This is used around pallets and drinking troughs to ensure load stability and transport safety.

The transition to Trioworld’s Loop alternatives with 30% PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) which is plastic that has been recycled after it has been used for the purpose for which it was manufactured, is made after extensive joint tests. This will provide an annual saving corresponding to approx. 150 tons of new plastic and 200 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents (see information for calculation information).

“Spendrups is a fourth-generation family business and sustainability issues have been on our agenda for a long time. In recent years, we have taken several important steps to lower the climate footprint of our packaging portfolio and make it more circular”, says Anna Lidström, Head of Sustainability at Spendrups Bryggeri. “Now we have taken another step, and in Trioworld we have a partner who can help us improve our sustainability performance and at the same time maintain high quality and efficiency. The investment is in line with Spendrups sustainability strategy, where reduced climate impact and a more circular use of resources, such as packaging materials, are important building blocks”, Anna Lidström continues.
