Aldi is rolling out a change across its 990 UK stores in an effort to help the environment.
All milk sold by the retailer will now brand colourless caps to make them easier to recycle. Full fat, skimmed and low fat are distinguishable by their blue, green and red colour caps and this will remain across each types' labels.
The new milk caps have already popped up in stores this week, made in partnership with suppliers. While milk bottle lids are recyclable, the colouring contaminates the material, making it tougher to be reused as food-grade packaging.
