Carlsberg Bottle And Can

Greener Green

Greener Green is the ink on our Carlsberg pilsner bottle labels as well as some of our carton boxes, which is modified to meet Cradle to Cradle Silver Certified™ standards for better recyclability.

Printing inks have major impacts on the recyclability of packaging because often they are recycled along with paper fibers. To improve the recyclability of Carlsberg labels in selected markets, we are using the Hubergroup Eco-Offset Ink Premium Plus which is Cradle to Cradle Certified™ at the Silver level.
