06 Mar 2020 --- Swiss food giant Nestlé has released what is marketed as the first-of-its-kind, single-material pouch for baby food products. The “designed-to-be-recycled” pouch is made from polypropylene (PP) and was developed in partnership with Gualapack, a manufacturer of premade spouted pouches. The move concerns products of Nestlé’s baby food brand Gerber and is in line with Nestlé’s commitment to make 100 percent of its packaging recyclable or reusable by 2025. The company also stresses that the initiative is an important milestone in creating a wider market for recycled plastics that are safe for food.
