29 Aug 2023 --- PepsiCo Beverages North America will switch the plastic rings that hold packs of beverages together with a paper-based solution. This move is part of the company’s PepsiCo Positive (pep+) initiative. The paperboard is made from recycled materials and is recyclable. Pep+ is a part of the F&B giant’s “sustainable packaging journey to ensure packaging never becomes waste.” PepsiCo says it is “the first” beverage company to commit to a North American rollout of paper-based solutions to replace plastic rings across multipacks that traditionally use plastic rings.
