Lucozade Sport is introducing a new reduced plastic sleeve as part of its initiative to create more sustainable packaging that reduces its reliance on virgin materials. The new product packaging sleeve is being rolled out now in the UK, and is reported to save 101-tonnes of virgin plastic per year and also makes it easier for it to be recognized when recycled. The new packaging sleeve follows on the brand's previous packaging update and comes as part of the brand's larger shift towards more sustainable packaging by 2030.
Head of Marketing for Lucozade Sport at SBF GB&I Tom Bell commented on the new reduced plastic sleeve saying, "This is a key move for the Lucozade Sport brand and, more broadly, for SBF GB&I as part of our Growing For Good vision. The new sleeve not only makes Lucozade Sport bottles easier to recycle – and therefore turned more easily back into bottles – but equally benefits retailers by being more eye-catching and striking on shelf, helping shoppers to find their favourite isotonic drink more easily."
