Dow ranked No. 7 on the Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity list in 2023.
Dow has partnered with Mengniu to launch an all-polyethylene (PE) yogurt pouch designed for recyclability in China.
Mengniu is a leading dairy company in China. The partnership is a testimony to both companies’ commitment to achieving a circular economy.
“This partnership with Mengniu is a milestone for both brands to pioneer all-PE dairy packaging designed for recyclability in China. The country’s ambition to work towards Zero-waste Cities has changed how it tackles plastic waste,” said Bambang Candra, Asia Pacific Commercial Vice President of Dow Packaging and Specialty Plastics.
The yogurt pouch was created with INNATE TF-BOPE resins to ensure productiveness and recyclability. The product is a breakthrough for the dairy industry.
“This collaboration is a significant step in facilitating recyclability and empowering the possibilities for recycled packaging to be transformed into high-value applications through responsible disposal and appropriate recycling process, reducing our industry’s reliance on unrenewable resources,” Candra said. “Through our advanced research and development capabilities, we strive to help brand owners like Mengniu to take action and deliver on their sustainability commitments.”
