APCO plays a pivotal role in Australia’s packaging landscape, leading the development of a circular economy for packaging. The organisation’s Annual Awards celebrate entities that exemplify leadership and innovation in sustainable packaging practices. This year’s event highlighted the industry’s collective progress towards the 2025 National Packaging Targets and beyond.
Packamama’s multi award-winning eco-flat wine bottles are made entirely from Australian recycled PET sourced from Visy’s Smithfield recycling facility in NSW. This approach not only reduces environmental impact but also sets a new standard for the integration of recycled materials in packaging. By prioritising local recycled content, Packamama enhances the sustainability of its products and supports a circular economy.
The Recycled Content Award category featured esteemed finalists, including respective industry leaders Amcor, Diageo, and Henkel. Packamama’s recognition among such distinguished companies highlights its significant contributions to sustainable packaging and its role in advancing the industry’s environmental objectives.
