The packaging fits easily into the fridge and ensures the liquid stays cooler for a longer time.

“NWB packaging is claimed to use 72% less plastic than PET bottle, and offer 35% less delivery traffic and 90% less waste traffic.”

It utilises DS Smith Plastics’ Bag-in-Box principle and comprises an outer cardboard box, a flexible bag and a dispenser.

The box offers protection from direct sunlight as well as savings of up to 90% in waste transportation when compared to plastic bottles as it is flattened after use.

DS Smith Plastics’ Rapak supplied the bag and the dispensing tap, which ensures the liquid does not come into contact with air even after opening.
