Sustainability at Janus Food Group

At Janus Food Group, sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s at the core of everything we do. By using Tetra Recart®, we are redefining food packaging with an eco-friendly alternative to traditional cans, glass jars, and plastic containers. From reducing carbon emissions to minimizing waste, Tetra Recart® is the smarter, more sustainable choice for food packaging.

Why Tetra Recart® is Better for the Planet

Why Tetra Recart® is Better for the Planet

Tetra Recart® is primarily made from FSC®-certified paperboard, which comes from responsibly managed forests. Unlike cans and plastic containers that rely on finite resources like metal and petroleum-based materials, Tetra Recart® packaging is derived from renewable plant-based sources, helping to reduce dependency on non-renewable materials.

Lower Carbon Footprint

The production and transportation of packaging contribute significantly to global carbon emissions. Tetra Recart® helps combat this impact by offering:

Up to 80% lower carbon footprint compared to traditional cans and glass jars.

Efficient transportation, with 30% more products per pallet, reducing fuel consumption and emissions.

Lightweight design, which means less energy is needed for manufacturing and shipping.

Reduced Waste & Landfill Impact

Recyclable in many communities – Tetra Recart® cartons can be processed through carton recycling programs, reducing landfill waste.

Less food waste – With its long shelf life and protective packaging, Tetra Recart® helps prevent spoilage, ensuring more food is consumed instead of discarded.

No metal corrosion or breakage – Unlike cans that can rust or glass jars that can shatter, Tetra Recart® maintains product integrity with minimal material waste.

More Efficient Transportation & Storage

Unlike bulky cans and fragile glass jars, Tetra Recart® rectangular shape allows for:

Better packing efficiency – More products fit on pallets, reducing the number of trucks needed for transport.

Lower energy consumption – Less space means fewer shipments, cutting down on fuel usage and emissions.

Compact storage – Saves space in warehouses, on store shelves, and in consumer kitchens.

No refrigeration required – Tetra Recart® packaging keeps food shelf-stable without refrigeration, reducing energy demands throughout the supply chain, from warehouses to retail stores and consumer homes.
