The Amcor Secure Flip sports cap is being integrated onto the packaging of a popular range of kid's drinks in Austria in a bid to make them easier to enjoy and even more recyclable. The packaging update comes in the form of the Amcor Secure Flip 26mm sports cap that's tamper-evident and boasts a tethered closure that will stay affixed to the bottle instead of requiring removal for recycling. The packaging thus supports being completely recycled after use instead of needing to be separated to maximize convenience for consumers.
International Brand Manager at Rauch Yippy Gudrun Golob spoke on the Amcor Secure Flip sports cap saying, "The right packaging has been a critical part of Yippy’s success. With the adoption of the Amcor closure, we are ensuring that children continue to get the best enjoyment from the drink, and at the same time are able more easily to recycle the entire pack, an important benefit for increasingly environmentally conscious youngsters and their parents.”
