At MILC Network, sustainability is one of our core values. Our packaging needs to tick a few goals - being on-brand, affordable and most importantly environmentally and socially responsible. As a business sustainability in all stages of the supply chain is our responsibility and we have created focused initiatives that reflect this.
Using recycled and eco-friendly materials in packaging is becoming more and more popular in the face of ever-changing consumer demand. Where possible, MILC Network prioritizes sourcing packaging that is made from recyclable materials in an effort to reduce waste. Due to the differing rules and regulations in each country or council area, there are a few key factors to consider before choosing a recyclable or eco-friendly material for your packaging

Ever heard of PCR or rPET? These terms refer to recycled plastics used to create brand-new products. PCR materials come from plastic that’s collected, cleaned, turned into pellets, and then reused in manufacturing. By choosing PCR, we reduce the need for new virgin plastic, saving valuable resources like water and electricity while helping cut down on waste.

As the industry continues to evolve, refillable and reusable packaging has become a powerful way to reduce single-use plastic. MILC Network offers a range of refillable bottles and jars along with the matching refills to support more sustainable packaging solutions. Beyond the environmental benefits, refillable packaging is also a smart marketing tool, driving repeat purchases and building long-term customer loyalty.
