Loop Industries Announces Commercial Supply Agreement with Danone SA to Supply Loop(TM) Branded PET Resin Made from 100% Recycled Content - Seite 2

"We need cutting-edge technologies like the ones Loop Industries has developed to reach our sustainable packaging ambition. This agreement is a natural next step in our partnership with Loop Industries, moving from technology development to the concrete production phase. It is an important milestone to establish ‘infinite' closed-loop recycling for PET bottles and enable the recycling of hard-to-recycle packaging and materials" said Nicolas GREGOIRE, Vice-President Packaging Cycle at Danone.

In conjunction with this agreement, Danone and other Loop partners retained a globally recognized third-party independent engineering firm to execute a detailed due diligence report, which validated and reinforced the quality, effectiveness, and scalability of Loop Industries' technology. Loop and Danone have developed a long-standing relationship built on transparency and communication that supports Danone's circular packaging commitments on a global basis. Throughout this time, Loop Industries has continued to work diligently on perfecting its technology for commercial production on an international scale, including projects to build greenfield Infinite Loop facilities in Canada, France, and South Korea.
