Under this agreement, Berlin Packaging has agreed to purchase PET 1881 caps from Origin Materials for sale and distribution to its broad customer base, which includes many of the world’s major beverage companies. The partnership brings together the innovative Origin PET cap product portfolio, beginning with the 1881 beverage closure, and Berlin Packaging’s global value-added distribution capabilities.
The PET 1881 caps represent a technological breakthrough that can enable lighter packaging, improved shelf life, and "mono-material” containers that enhance recyclability and promote circularity. The caps can be made with 100% post-consumer recycled PET and used in food-grade applications, unlike many PP and HDPE caps, and are made by thermoforming instead of traditional injection molding.
