Ashley JONES, UK Managing Director of PACCOR commented – I am delighted that PACCOR UK has achieved this excellent milestone of manufacturing out of fully recycled materials on a large scale. The lessons we have learned over the past decade are an important step for us to further support development in the market and to provide sustainable value for our clients and environmental benefits to the retailers and market. Now, with confidence, we continue our sustainable journey towards the development of half a million tons.

As a result, the company offers highly innovative products in the ways of materials, design and function which are 100% secure for the environment and can easily and safely be reused, recycled.
