LONDON - Consumer goods giant Unilever vowed to halve the amount of new plastic it uses over the next five years, by shifting to more recyclable and alternative materials and refillable options to meet consumer demand for less waste.
“This demands a fundamental rethink in our approach to our packaging and products. It requires us to introduce new and innovative packaging materials and scale up new business models, like re-use and re-fill formats, at an unprecedented speed and intensity,” Chief Executive Officer Alan Jope said in a statement.
Britain’s second-biggest supermarket chain Sainsbury’s promised to halve its plastic packaging by 2025 last month, while rival Tesco said it would ban brands that use excessive packaging from its stores next year.
