Most of the juice we make at pomegreat comes in cartons, not just because it means we don’t need to use preservatives to keep it fresh, but for lots of other good reasons.
-
It’s the only drinks package made mostly from a renewable material (i.e. wood!)
-
Cartons are very transport efficient - they are delivered to us in reels, which means that packaging for nearly a million 1 litre cartons uses only one lorry, compared with up to 50 lorries for formed plastic or glass bottles
-
Cartons are recyclable – collection services are now available across most of the UK and Republic of Ireland. To find out more about carton recycling in your area, please visit www.tetrapakrecycling.co.uk for UK www.recycletogether.ie for Ireland

In 2008, 25.6 billion cartons were recycled, up 64% since 2002.
