Dow and Amcor have launched a collaboration to scale low-carbon polyethylene. The partnership pairs Dow's material supply with Amcor's packaging expertise and carbon accounting to offer brand owners verifiable low-carbon packaging options.
The collaboration aims to influence brand specifications and procurement by providing transparent carbon footprint data alongside the material. Low-carbon polyethylene can be produced using renewable feedstocks or lower-emission production routes.
Packaging companies and material suppliers are increasingly partnering to meet sustainability commitments from consumer goods companies and retailers.
