Husky’s PET closure wins Packaging Europe Sustainability Award, advancing circularity in beverage packaging

Husky’s PET closure wins Packaging Europe Sustainability Award, advancing circularity in beverage packaging

 

Husky Technologies, a pioneering technology provider enabling the delivery of essential needs to the global community, announces that its groundbreaking PET closure has won the Packaging Europe Sustainability Award in the Driving Circular Economy category. This award, presented at the Sustainable Packaging Summit that took place in Amsterdam on November 12, reflects Husky’s commitment to enabling true circularity in the beverage packaging industry.

 

In a market traditionally dominated by two-material bottle-and-closure solutions, Husky’s PET closure is set to transform industry standards. By creating a fully PET-based mono-material solution that integrates seamlessly with existing PET recycling streams, Husky is streamlining the material sorting process, reducing environmental impact, and unlocking new efficiencies in recycling and lightweighting.

 

“At Husky, our commitment to enabling the packaging industry to transition from a linear to a circular economy is taken seriously. Winning the Packaging Europe Sustainability Award for our PET closure reflects this commitment to delivering innovative, sustainable solutions that meet global demands for more circular packaging,” said Robert Domodossola, Husky’s President of Systems and Tooling. “Our PET closure is designed to advance the recyclability and functionality of beverage packaging by providing a mono-material solution that represents a significant step forward for the industry and consumers alike.”

Husky’s new PET closure is designed to improve both operational and environmental performance of the complete beverage package by enabling:

 

  • Enhanced Circularity: By aligning both closure and bottle materials, the need for multi-material sorting is eliminated, resulting in higher yields of recyclable PET.
  • Improved Efficiency: The PET closure’s rigid properties enable meaningful reductions in material use and weight, minimizing costs and waste.
  • Reliable Performance: Unmatched patented tamper evident forming approach for
  • consumer safety. The capping process is virtually stress-free and yields a lower reject rate.

Unveiled earlier this year at NPE 2024 in Orlando, Florida, Husky’s PET closure has already garnered strong industry support, with select early adopters preparing for commercial production in 2025. This success reflects Husky’s mission to make a positive global impact by driving sustainable innovation in circular packaging
