F&N to switch to sustainable packaging produced by its subsidiary
DRINKS manufacturer Fraser and Neave (F&N) will be switching the packaging of its in-house brands and products to sustainable alternatives produced by its indirect subsidiary, Print Lab, F&N chief executive officer Hui Choon Kit has said.
“We see that as an advantage. Consumers who care see it as an advantage,” he added.
Some of these alternatives include a plastic bag substitute made entirely out of the roots of the cassava plant, paper bags that are recyclable or sustainably sourced, as well as compostable food packaging, all of which are produced in a new eco-friendly manufacturing plant called the Green Lab.
