Tetra Pak recently announced that it now uses renewable electricity for more than a third of its total annual consumption worldwide. This is up from 22% in 2015.

The aseptic paper board and laminated paper and foil solutions for liquid and food packaging continue to grow in product segments ranging from milk to alcoholic beverages. The main provider of both laminates and filling and sealing solutions in this segment has been Tetra Pak, which is practically the inventor of this category of packaging. While some forms of aseptic liquid packaging such as gable top cartons require a cold chain, the outstanding feature of the Tetra Pak has been its ability to significantly prolong the shelf life of food and beverage products without refrigeration.

According to the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), currently Asia, the Middle East and Africa comprise 34% of global packaging consumption whereas Europe is 34%, North America 27% and Latin America 5%. Russia, India, Brazil and China are estimated to be the source of about 30% of future global demand, a proportion that will increase as their economies develop further. Other trends in buying behavior imply an even greater need for packaging material. The sourcing of fiber to meet this demand can have particularly adverse impacts on ecologically significant areas, not just domestically, but also across the South-East Asian region. This reflects a larger need for India’s packaging industry to ensure it uses only sustainably sourced material when meeting its long-term raw material requirements.
