Nestlé launches bio-based lids and scoops for infant formula
Nestlé is introducing bio-based lids and scoops made from sugar cane and its by-product for a range of its nutrition products for infants and children.
The company said the main advantage of the bio-based plastics is that they are made from a renewable plant material that can be continually replenished and that absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In addition, the packaging helps Nestlé reduce its use of fossil-based plastics.
Nestlé Nutrition's NAN infant formula packed in the new packaging materials was introduced in Hong Kong in 2020 and will be available in other markets globally from 2021, including for other brands such as BEBA and GUIGOZ.
