Tip Top Bakeries Adds Recycled Content to Bread Bags
Tip Top Bakeries has introduced bread bags containing 30% recycled content using the ISCC mass balance approach. The LDPE packaging, supplied by Amcor, launched in September 2024 and is available across Tip Top The One, Tip Top The One Gluten Free, and Tip Top 9 Grain loaves nationwide. This initiative is expected to reduce virgin plastic use by 160 tons by December 2025. This follows Tip Top’s 2020 transition to fully recycled and recyclable cardboard bread tags, eliminating 140 million single-use plastic tags annually. The ISCC-certified packaging underscores a commitment to sustainable packaging solutions while maintaining product quality. Amcor, the supplier, highlights the importance of collaboration in reducing virgin plastic dependency. The mass balance approach ensures that recycled materials are integrated efficiently, supporting the shift toward a circular economy.

Boom Beauty, a US-based cosmetics company, has updated its Boomstick makeup collection with a reformulated composition and redesigned packaging that incorporates 50% post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials. The Boomstick range, which has sold over one million units in the US, is specifically designed for mature skin and now features ingredients such as cocoa butter and sea buckthorn oil, which contribute to hydration and antioxidant protection. The updated formulation also includes sodium hyaluronate for moisture retention and emollients like octyldodecanol and caprylic/capric triglyceride for a smooth texture. This move aligns with a wider industry trend of incorporating recycled materials in personal care packaging to reduce plastic waste.
