Evergreen Packaging's plant-based packaging solutions provide a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based packaging, helping to reduce the need for plastic. As the recyclable PlantCarton is made with a minimum of 70% renewable material, including paper from trees grown with responsible forestry practices, it is said to offer "an immediate opportunity to reduce plastic use by up to 80%."
By listening to the values expressed by its customers, New Barn Organics will be transitioning its line of almond milk products to Evergreen's PlantCarton as a more sustainable alternative to the plastic packaging it currently uses.
Evergreen Packaging also offers a range of other innovative plant-based packaging solutions for different needs, including renewable cupstock and ice cream board.
