Absolut Vodka says it’s the first global spirits brand to sell single-mold paper-based bottles commercially in the UK, part of its journey to create a fully bio-based bottle.
Seventh Generation, which was knee-deep in sustainable packaging when it was hardly even a thing, is waiting for their CPG peers to sense the urgency and catch up now.

The consumer goods giant is about to launch the first ever paper-based laundry detergent bottle. This innovative technology has been developed in partnership with the Pulpex consortium, a collaboration between Diageo, Pilot Lite, Pepsico, GSK Consumer Healthcare and Unilever. As Diageo also prepares to launch its first paper whiskey bottle, the entry of this technology into the world of cosmetics is expected.
A prototype of the first-ever paper-based laundry detergent bottle has been made for Unilever’s OMO brand (also known as Persil, Skip and Breeze) and is supposed and is set to debut in Brazil by early 2022, with an ambition for roll-out in Europe and other countries soon after.
