Sustainability Through Innovation: Liquid Milk Systems

In the United States, most people purchase milk in cumbersome plastic milk jugs or bulky gable top containers. Both take up lots of space in your refrigerator – and even more space in municipal landfills! Beyond that, jugs and gable tops consume lots of energy in processing, filling, and transport.

Hood Packaging Corporation has a better idea. For many years our Montreal, Canada headquartered Glopak division has been a leader in milk delivery systems that radically reduce the energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions that are associated with traditional milk packages, while also substantially reducing landfill discards. Beyond that, our Glopak milk pouches are easy to pack and transport,  save space in refrigerators, are easy to use and economical, and provide consumers with the freshest milk possible.

Since pouches were introduced in Canada they have quickly become the most popular way milk is served, both at home and in restaurants. And the pouch is catching on in the U.S. and Mexico as well. This is an innovation that benefits everyone.
