The vegetable wax layer protects the paper against moisture, which is necessary to keep the throat lozenge good.

Our new line of tethered caps represents a nexus of sustainable design. The tethered caps are single-piece fitments designed to ensure that there are no loose pieces and engineered to cut down on raw materials.

Nesquik all natural has less sugar than the classic product, using raw cane sugar instead of white sugar, and with cocoa responsibly sourced from West Africa under the Nestle’ Cocoa Plan.

Enter, blockchain. A distributed, digital ledger that can record every transaction ever made on multiple systems. It is a highly reliable technology for businesses looking to achieve end-to-end traceability and surveillance along their chain, on a global scale.

Already through blockchain, consumers are able to view information on the product inside the box – from the exact farm where fruit was grown to the weaver of a cotton bedsheet – via a QR code or barcode.
