The paper refill pack significantly reduces packaging weight by 97% compared to traditional coffee jars while maintaining the brand’s signature taste and aroma. Designed for convenience, the packs enable easy refilling of glass jars, extending their lifespan. The launch signifies Nescafé’s dedication to sustainability and offering eco-friendly choices without compromising product quality.

Milk & More milkmen can collect empty cartons in regions where the cartons cannot be curbside recycled.ThePackHubMilk & More Fresh Milk Switches to New Sustainable Cartons
Milk & More is offering fresh milk in renewable, recyclable cartons, delivering convenience to consumers’ doorsteps. These cartons can be collected by most local authorities with curbside recycling, covering 24 out of 31 Milk & More regional centers, facilitating their return to a dedicated recycling facility. To address regions without curbside recycling, Milk & More offers a solution: their milkmen can collect the cartons left on doorsteps to ensure effective recycling. The cartons are made from natural brown paperboard sourced from FSC-certified forests, with linings and caps made from bio-circular materials like reused vegetable oil, making them fully recyclable and capable of being recycled up to 7 times due to the use of high-quality fibers. These new cartons preserve light-sensitive nutrients in milk, reportedly keeping it fresher for longer. QR codes on the packs provide behind-the-scenes glimpses into the milk round and keep customers updated with news, offers, and competitions.
