Woodlands Dairy has proudly received the prestigious Gold Pack Award for its groundbreaking tethered caps on First Choice ESL (Extended Shelf Life) milk cartons, a testament to the company’s leadership in sustainability and innovation. This remarkable achievement was made possible through a strategic partnership with Diversified Liquid Packaging Group (DLPG) and Svalinn, both key players in sustainable packaging solutions.

A Milestone in Sustainable Packaging

The tethered caps, made from 100% renewable materials, represent a major advancement in eco-friendly packaging. These caps stay attached to the carton, significantly reducing waste and promoting recycling efficiency by preventing loose caps from entering the waste stream. This innovation aligns with Woodlands Dairy's commitment to fostering a circular economy and minimizing environmental impact.

*Marisa Maccaferri, Marketing Executive at Woodlands Dairy, emphasised the significance of this award, stating:

"This recognition underscores our dedication to sustainability and our ongoing efforts to bring innovative solutions to market. The tethered caps are just one example of how we’re working to create a more sustainable future for our planet."
