Berry Superfos has achieved a significant weight reduction for its 1kg UniPack container supplied to leader to leading German dairy producer Milchwerke Schwaben, to help meet the customer’s sustainability objectives. At the same time, this enhancement has also led to smarter logistics and improved efficiency on the filling line.

Milchwerke Schwaben wanted to redesign the 1kg UniPak container used for its Weideglück brand of yoghurt- and milk-based desserts, to reduce the container’s weight and its use of base materials. According to Jakob Ramm, the company’s managing director, the benefits have been numerous. “We wanted a weight reduction and we achieved almost 19% which we are very satisfied with,” he explained.
