Cooking spray brand Frylight has bolstered its sustainability credentials by reducing its bottle weight by 9%.
The move removes 20 tonnes of plastic from the supply chain. It follows previous brand initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint across transportation, logistics and production including the reduction of unnecessary plastic from its cap in 2017, which removed 120 tonnes of plastic per annum. Other initiatives include removing shrink-wrap packaging, which reduced plastic used by a further 26 tonnes per annum and an improved pallet configuration, to reduce CO2 emissions in 2022.
The initiative is part of parent company Saputo Dairy UK’s broader sustainability strategy and core values. These focus on minimising the company’s environmental impact and follow the removal of non-recyclable cover papers from its spreadable products.
The new, lighter bottles have an RSP of £2.25 and are available across Frylight’s full range of six products now.
