RPC Promens Consumer Nordics has developed a one liter milk bottle made entirely from a non-oil-based bio polymer produced from sugar cane. In its first commercial application, the new Modul bottle has been selected by Swedish dairy company Skånemejerier for its range of non-homogenized milk.

“Sustainability is a vital consideration throughout all our operations including our packaging, where we always seek to choose a solution with minimal impact on the environment,” said Armina Nilsson, sustainability manager at Skånemejerier.

In addition, the company is also working on a bottle that combines the polymer with a special mineral filler. This reduces the amount of polymer required for each bottle without impacting its strength and performance, which will further enhance its positive environmental profile.

“According to Euromonitor, one of the top 10 global trends in 2016 is greener food,” said Jan Weier, senior sales manager at RPC. “Certainly there has been strong growth in organic food products in recent years and this has now led to more attention being paid to how they are packed. By using this new material, we can offer our customers a renewable and sustainable solution.”
