Packamama wins Recycled Content Award at 2024 Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) Annual Awards

London, United Kingdom

Packamama is proud to announce that they have been awarded the Recycled Content Award at the 2024 Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) Annual Awards, held on November 21 at Jones Bay Wharf in Sydney. This accolade underscores Packamama’s dedication to sustainable packaging solutions, particularly through the use of 100% Australian recycled PET in its innovative eco-flat wine bottles.

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.
