Amcor (NYSE: AMCR) has achieved a significant sustainability milestone by reducing plastic usage in flexible tubes for skincare brand Bulldog by 16.67%. The reduction in wall thickness for 50mm diameter tubes will save approximately 8.5 metric tonnes of plastic annually. The improved design maintains product quality and consumer experience while increasing post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic content to over 62%. The tubes, used for 100ml and 150ml Bulldog products, continue to utilize certified sugarcane-derived plastic, which has been part of their sustainability initiative since 2017. The modification resulted from collaboration between Amcor and Bulldog, involving rigorous trials to ensure squeezability and quality standards were maintained without impacting the filling process.
