Hasbro to use bio-PET in packaging

Toy company Hasbro takes its sustainable packaging a step further, announcing a switch to bio-PET for its blister packs and plastic windows, beginning in 2019.

Hasbro has announced that it will begin using plant-based bio-PET for blister packs and plastic windows in its product packaging starting in 2019.

According to Hasbro, utilizing bio-PET plastic is another important step in its sustainable packaging journey. In 2010, the company eliminated wire ties and, in 2013, replaced polyvinyl chloride with PET. In 2015, Hasbro achieved 90%-recycled or sustainably-sourced paper for packaging and in-box content and moved from PET to rPET in 2016.
