24 Aug 2023 --- Tesco is ditching the colored milk caps on the roughly 245 million milk bottles it sells each year. The removal of colors, traditionally used to delineate fat levels, will make the caps easier to recycle and help the supermarket improve its environmental sustainability record. Colored plastic currently needs to be processed separately from clear packaging, and the change means 3,900 extra tons of plastic will be recycled, claims Tesco.
