PET for new yogurt

For a new all-natural and spoonable yogurt in Argentina, Danone has come up with premium-looking packaging that is durable and sustainable.

The transparent 200-mL PET jar has a wide-mouth opening and an aluminium/PET/aluminum closure with a 65-mm over cap inclear polypropylene. The package was developed in collaboration with global packaging company Amcor.

“This wide-mouth PET jar is an entirely new format offering for cold-fill dairy products,” says Martin Darmandrail, New Business Development Director for Amcor in Argentina. “In a market historically dominated by thermoformed PP and polystyrene containers, we’ve shaken things up with a yogurt package with the durability, freshness,performance, manufacturing, and sustainability benefits of PET.”

The new PET jar supports the 100% natural positioning of Danone’s La Serenísima’s yogurt with featured engraving, a finely finished base, and a body-wrap label. To protect the contents, the jar includes a 55-mm finish with aluminum-PET-aluminum-foil barrier seal and an ultraviolet blocker.
