SIG has teamed up with top Australian wine producers to launch a recycle-ready bag-in-box wine pack, made at its Adelaide facility. The new design uses SIG Terra RecShield, a mono-material film with a specially engineered polymer that replaces traditional multi-layer films containing aluminum. This ensures everything, from the tap to the carton, can be responsibly disposed of.
With this innovation, every part of the packaging is now ready for recycling. The move supports Australia’s 2025 National Packaging Targets and aligns with the Sustainable Packaging Guidelines set by the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO), marking a major step toward more sustainable wine packaging.
“SIG has been at the forefront of bag-in-box packaging globally, and this product continues our commitment to innovation and leadership in sustainable packaging solutions for our customers, consumers, and the planet. Working with APCO and our winery partners, we are bringing a recycle-ready solution to market that fits Australian recycling infrastructure while maintaining wine quality through the supply chain,”said Carmen Houston, ANZ Head of Marketing & Sustainability at SIG.
