South African packaging giant Mondi (Johannesburg; www.mondigroup.com) has teamed up with French flexible pouch manufacturer Thimonnier (Saint-Germain-au-Mont-d’Or; www.thimonnier.com) to create a new packaging for liquid soap refills that reduces plastics usage by more than 75% compared to rigid plastic bottles.

The new sachet is made from a recyclable mono-material, coextruded polyethylene, and, according to Mondi, can replace the current industry standard of multilayer PVC refill containers, which are effectively not recyclable. “The durable and leak-proof solution allows consumers to smell the product inside, a particularly useful feature for a liquid soap,” the company adds.
The packaging giant also aims to make all of its products reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025, as part of the Mondi Action Plan 2030.
