08 Aug 2022 --- PepsiCo is launching display stands for its Lay’s chips brand throughout Europe made from UBQ Materials’ (UBQ) patented bio-based thermoplastic. The move extends the F&B giant’s partnership with UBQ using recycled shipping pallets to boost logistical carbon efficiency. The thermoplastic consists entirely of unsorted household waste, including all organics. UBQ material diverts waste from landfills and incineration, preventing emissions from being released into the environment. The supplier says that for every ton of UBQ produced, up to 12 tons of CO₂ equivalent are prevented from polluting the environment.
