APR Recognizes Husky's Latest Development of Lightweight Recyclable CSD Barrier Packaging

Husky’s continued collaboration with Mitsubishi Gas Chemical has led to a significant evolution of our fully recyclable Multi-Layer PET solution for small-format carbonated soft drinks (CSD), which has now earned recognition from the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) for 3.3% MXD6 integration!

Building on our 2020 APR accreditation for 2.5% MXD6, this new milestone enables us to lightweight single-serve CSD bottles, starting at just 12g. The key is the incorporation of high-barrier material in a fully recyclable package, enabling us to significantly reduce the required PET resin.

Our continued evolution of the solution enables the application of the technology to a broader range of bottle sizes, addressing the demands of beverage packaging producers for recyclable barrier packaging across various application formats.

Based in North America, the APR is the gold standard for recyclability and is referenced by leading organizations around the world. Their recognition underscores our commitment to sustainable practices and processes, which enables our customers to optimize operations, increase beverage packaging design circularity, and reduce costs.
