By slightly changing the shape of the packaging, more liters of juice can fit onto a pallet. This reduces transport costs and CO2 emissions.
A responsible way of reducing environmental impact is to transport more products per pallet. In this case, it means more liters of juice per pallet, which leads to savings on the company’s transportation costs. Getting there certainly required innovative measures. The juice packaging was given a slightly different shape that enables more efficient stacking of pallets. The company conducted a CO2 assessment to quantify the environmental benefits.
