Sustainable packaging is reshaping the packaging industry across the world, with Canada no exception to this. For example, the rise of plant-based milk is driving innovations in packaging, with companies like Tetra Pak introducing cartons made from renewable materials like sugarcane. In addition, larger pack sizes in plant-based milk are popular as they not only minimise waste, but also provide convenience and cost savings for consumers, who prefer to buy plant-based milk in bulk.
