Supermarket Aldi has issued a message to customers after making changes to its milk packaging. Clear caps are now set to be trialled on bottles in a bid to make more products recyclable.
Birmingham Live reports that stores will scrap green tops on British semi-skimmed milk products. Aldi and Muller's joint trial will first hit stores in the north west this month.
They anticipate an additional 60 tonnes per year of recycled High-Density Polythene (rHDPE) could be turned back into food-grade packaging. Richard Gorman, Plastics and Packaging Director at Aldi, said: “We know it’s becoming increasingly important to our customers that their everyday products are environmentally-friendly, and we are constantly reviewing ways to become a more sustainable supermarket.
