ORGANIC YOGURT IN R-PET CUP
This is what “real recycling” looks like
We have developed the first white yogurt cup made of 100% rPET, which can be recycled after use and then remade into a yogurt cup – while boasting the smallest carbon footprint compared with other packaging options.
we are awarded
with the Green Packaging Star Award 2021
At the end of October, rPET packaging with its closed recycling loop received the Green Packaging Star Award 2021, which was presented at the Austrian Packaging Day in Vienna. Previously, the joint project had already been awarded the TRIGOS 2021, Austria’s award for responsible business, in the “Exemplary Projects” category.

New year, new accolade
WorldStar Award 2022 for school milk packaging
The World Packaging Organisation has announced the winners of the WorldStar Awards 2022. Among them was the joint project between our partners Austria’s school milk producers, Starlinger Viscotec and Greiner Packaging, which involved producing sustainable cups from 100% recycled PET (rPET) to be filled with school milk for the state of Upper Austria.
Sustainabitlity project
Blister caps made from 100% PCR material
By collecting PET packaging from the Yellow Bag and using modern technologies, these materials were first sorted and thoroughly cleaned. We were then able to use our decontamination unit (Dekon) to extrude the recycled material into a new film that is suitable for direct contact with food. Henkel used this film to produce new packaging for toilet blister packs. In this way, used packaging is turned into something new – a successful example of sustainable recycling.
