Juice Boxes

Many Layers, Many Possibilities.

Juice boxes are multi-layer packaging that keeps beverages fresh and safe. While more complex to recycle than single-material containers, these packages play a vital role in reducing food waste and transportation emissions.

What are Poly-coat Containers?

Juice boxes are made from multiple layers of materials, typically including paper, plastic, and sometimes aluminum.

We Handle These Types:

  • Fruit juice beverages
  • Plant-based beverages
  • Drinkable yogurt beverages

Did You Know?

  • The paper fibers in poly-coat containers can be recycled up to seven times
  • These containers are lightweight, reducing transportation emissions
  • New recycling technologies are constantly improving recovery rates

The Poly-coat Journey:

  1. Collection at depots
  2. Sorting by type
  3. Special processing to separate materials
  4. Converting into:
    • Paper products
    • Plastic lumber
    • Construction materials
