CHEP USA used the CHEP Test Track facility in Orlando, Florida, to assess the durability of a tissue manufacturer’s new 100% recycled product packaging. The results were positive and helped the customer utilise recycled packaging eliminating the need for virgin pulp, saving them  $320,000 USD.

The majority of plastic material is recovered from RPCs at the end of their life. This reduces our demand for virgin plastic and means that none of our RPC plastic ends up in landfill. In FY16, Brambles recovered and reused more than 27,000 tonnes of plastic.
