21% LESS PLASTIC ACROSS OUR RANGE*
We are really proud to be reducing our use of plastic.
*Compared to Allen’s lollies packaging in 2022, we will now be using approximately 58 tonnes less plastic in our lolly bags across the range over a year, which equates to a 21% reduction. This has been calculated using the total plastic in Allen’s lolly bags manufactured in 2022.
HOW DID WE DO IT?
We have reduced the thickness of most of our Allen’s lolly bags^, but there has been no change to the taste or amount of your favourite lollies inside our bags!
THE START OF OUR JOURNEY!
We want to reduce the amount of virgin plastic we are using on as many Allen’s bags as possible, as fast as possible.
Reducing the thickness of our packaging is part of the goal we set in 2018 to reduce our virgin plastic by a third by 2025.
