Collection Program For Carton Recycling (Milk Carton, Juice Carton,...)
Why is the carton?
An estimated 15 billion used milk cartons (equivalent to 150,000 tons) per year in Vietnam (according to a 2018 report shared by Natural Resources & Environment Newspaper). In 2020, it is estimated that in Hanoi capital, on average, over 1 million children drink milk every day, generating at least 1 million milk cartons, equivalent to 10 tons of waste per day. If milk cartons are not separated for recycling or proper treatment, they will become "dead waste" and will be disposed of in landfills or in the environment. 100% of paper cartons (composed of about 75% pulp, 21% polymer and 4% aluminum) are recyclable, this helps to reduce the amount of waste, avoid wasting resources and contribute to the sustainable use of paper materials.
