Low carbon emission screw caps
Packaging company Amcor Capsules has developed what it claims are the first low-carbon emission screw cap in the market. Branded ‘Stelvin’, the aluminium screw caps are made with a 35% reduced carbon footprint, thanks to the inclusion of 46% recycled aluminium content.
“We always aim for the best for our customers, and we wanted to go further to help them achieve their own sustainability goals,” according to Yannick Magnon, general manager of Amcor Capsules, who said Stelvin has been welcomed by winemakers as setting the ‘standard for quality’ as one of the ‘most sustainable’ capping solutions in the industry.
The development aligns with Amcor’s pledge to reduce its own carbon footprint, and reach net zero emissions by 2050.
