Many PP products contain 40% perpetual resources
PET products made with minimum 10% post-consumer recycled content (RPET)
All made with 50% post-industrial recycle
Reduced amount of material and packaging by 25% in new products through engineering innovation
Reduce and recycle scrap at all Anchor plants (<1% remains)
Anchor does not landfill waste; used in other applications (cutter box core plugs)
R & D is continually researching new technology to increase use of recycled
materials and limit use of environmentally sensitive resins
World’s largest manufacturer of reusable polypropylene microwavable takeout containers.

Re-Use saves energy, equipment, and other natural resources
Reusable containers increase sales. Providing reusable polypropylene containers to the consumer has led to increased sales for companies such as Hillshire Farms, Butterball, Healthy Choice and others.
Consumers prefer reusable containers over recyclable or biodegradable. Will reuse containers up to six months
EPA states: REUSE and REDUCE are preferred methods of waste management
Why Reusable Containers?
26
Anchor Packaging Confidential Information
Heat Tolerant. Safe up to 230ºF. Microwave-safe. Saves energy and time vs.
conventional oven. Dishwasher-safe. Saves energy and time. Store to table
to dishwasher to cabinet. Maintains Food Taste. No flavor change or plastic odor
vs. non-heat tolerant plastics (rigid styrene) Durable and Leak-resistant. Heat and eat right from the
container, without cutting, tearing, or breaking. Good for the Environment. Reduction in material and
energy consumption and consumer demand for disposable packaging.
