PRESS RELEASE
From June 2021, we produce liquid dairy products in sustainable aseptic cartons from SIG Combibloc. Two differentiating formats in three filling volumes – 500ml, 750ml and 1.000ml, will be available from the start : combiblocMidi and combifitMidi for the different product ranges in our portfolio. Flexibility at its best.
Our sustainability ambition did not end here. We opted to start with the sustainable packaging structure SIGNATURE Full Barrier. The beverage cartons are made of up to 95% renewable materials and are responsibly sourced. The paperboard is FSCTM-certified (FSCTM trademark licence code: FSCTM C020428) certified and the thin layer of aluminium is ASI-certified (Aluminium Stewardship Initiative). This sustainable structure reduces the CO2 footprint versus the standard structure.In a next step to take sustainability to the next level, we will also launch in the future an alu-free structure for UHT-milk. Another advantage is the light-weight of the packaging and the convenient single action screw cap.

The first available products will be our UHT milk made from 100% meadow milk in two different varities: full milk and semi-skimmed milk. Both products will be offered in 1L. The second product range is our premium quality 35 % cream and 20% Topchef’s. These products will also be offered in 1L. More products will follow later this year.
Producing liquid dairy in SIG Combibloc packaging solutions is one of OLYMPIA’s milestones to support our beloved planet and society. Both companies are working closely to offer even more sustainable solutions in the future. Olympia is ready now to meet conscious consumers by offering our sustainably packed products.
