18 Oct 2022 --- UK snack company, Walkers, has invested £14 (US$15.8) million into removing 250 metric tons of virgin plastic annually from the company’s supply chain. A cardboard design will replace the outer plastic packaging on millions of Walkers 22-24 bag multipacks, which reduces the current amount of virgin plastic used.The cardboard packaging is being implemented in major UK supermarkets in the coming weeks after a successful trial with Tesco. Accompanying the new bags, Walker has also invested in a stretch film to wrap around its pallets before being distributed to retailers.
