ITC’s Packaging Business scores FIVE WorldStar Awards – the preeminent global awards in packaging. This is the highest number of awards won by a single India company this year, and an unprecedented achievement for a packaging company. We battled it out with over 300 contestants from across 34 countries.
One of our prizes came in the Foods category, and the other four top awards in the Beverages category. Of these, three awards were in the Sustainable Packaging domain.
One was an ultra-high barrier recyclable laminate for a coffee bean pack to protect the contents against moisture, vapor and oxygen. This recyclable laminate manufactured with green energy is one of the eco-friendliest beverage packaging solutions.
We also developed an environment-friendly paper-based tea envelope bag with a 100% biodegradable coating that provides a good alternative for multilayer plastic bags. The compostable sealant, called BioSeal, is a patented ITC innovation!
The third award focussed intensively on sustainability was an eco-friendly, leak and spill proof paperboard-based pack for an ice-cream maker to replace their plastic tub, embodying the Reduce-Reuse-Recycle tenet. This is a classic example of our plastic intensity reduction efforts.
