TotalEnergies Lubrifiants and BERICAP join forces to launch a new closure made from recycled plastic

Carsten Pfromm, Business Development Director Industrial at BERICAP, said: “At BERICAP we are committed to a long-term strategy of contributing to a circular economy by developing user friendly, resource-conserving and recyclable closures. For that reason we are more than happy to collaborate with partners such as TotalEnergies Lubrifiants. The new DIN 60 closure for the 20-liter packaging is another example of weight reduction without sacrificing quality or user friendliness. 25% less weight and the use of PCR makes a significant contribution to the reduction of our carbon footprint and the advancement of closed-loop material cycles. We can also offer other closures such as DIN 45 and 51 in PCR.”

Emir Cetin, Global Packaging Manager at TotalEnergies Lubrifiants, said: “Our collaboration with BERICAP on this range of 20-liter packaging closures demonstrates our shared commitment to circular economy. We are excited to begin using these new closures made with 50% recycled plastic. This initiative will set a new standard for sustainability in the lubricant packaging cap industry.”

Olivier Greiner, Vice President, Polymers Europe & Orient at TotalEnergies, said: “We are committed to helping our partners achieve their sustainability goals and to addressing the challenge of end-of-life plastics. This development responds to the growing demand for more innovative and sustainable plastics and fully contributes to our ambition to reach one million tons of circular polymers a year by 2030.”
