Tiptree to Utilize 30% Recycled Plastic Films from Amcor

Amcor, a global leader in packaging solutions, has announced a new partnership with Tiptree, the well-known preserves and spreads brand owned by Wilkin & Sons. This collaboration will see Tiptree adopt packaging films that incorporate 30% certified post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. The move is part of a broader initiative to enhance sustainability in the food packaging sector.

The packaging films provided by Amcor will be employed in various applications, including shrink film and pallet stretch wrap. This change aligns with Tiptree's commitment to environmental responsibility, as the company seeks to reduce its reliance on virgin plastics and lower its overall carbon footprint.

Amcor's use of post-consumer recycled materials not only addresses the growing consumer demand for more sustainable packaging options but also supports the circular economy by repurposing plastic waste. The integration of these recycled materials into Tiptree's packaging is expected to promote greater awareness around environmental issues in the food industry.
