The plastic packaging contains recycled polypropylene, according to the container manufacturer. Henkel tapped Austrian manufacturer Greiner Packaging to develop the new design sleeve and container. The outer cardboard sleeve is made from 92% recycled content. Although the inside of the plastic container is still made from white virgin material, its exterior layer now includes recycled polypropylene from post-consumer sources.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Henkel\u2019s Persil 4in1 Discs detergent packaging contains 50% of the recycled post-consumer material, preventing household plastics from going into landfills. \u201cThe packaging\u2019s lower plastic content helps to reduce CO2 emissions, while the cardboard wrap maintains the container\u2019s stability,\u201d the manufacturing company said.<\/p>\n<p>By 2025, Henkel wants to have all of their packaging be recyclable or reusable, with an exception for adhesive products that would negatively affect recyclability. The company also seeks to halve the amount of virgin plastics from fossil sources in its consumer products.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.environmentalleader.com\/2020\/04\/henkel-recycled-household-plastics\/\">Environmental Leader<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consumer goods company Henkel has begun using packaging made from recycled household plastics for its detergent capsule products.
