EPL Limited (formerly known as Essel Propack Limited), the world’s largest specialty packaging company, has been selected as a partner by Unilever, in their journey towards achieving 100% sustainability in the oral care segment. Accordingly, EPL will supply their APR-approved, 100% recyclable and fully sustainable Platina tubes for the toothpaste category of Unilever. The recyclable tubes will be launched later this year in two of Unilever’s biggest oral care markets, France and India.

EPL’s Platina tube with HDPE closure is the world’s first fully sustainable and completely recyclable tube accredited by APR. This partnership will help Unilever’s oral care brands like Signal, Pepsodent and Closeup to be 100% recyclable by 2025.
