Hotpack Global, a UAE-based leader in sustainable packaging products, has partnered with Spinneys, a prominent supermarket chain in the UAE, to pioneer sustainable retail packaging solutions. As part of this initiative, Hotpack Global has introduced 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) shopping bags for Spinneys retail outlets across the UAE, making Spinneys the first retailer in the region to embrace this environmentally friendly approach.
The launch of PCR shopping bags by Hotpack Global for Spinneys marks a significant milestone in the retail industry’s sustainable initiatives. These bags are manufactured entirely from 100% PCR resins, contributing to a cleaner environment while maintaining exceptional functionality with a capacity to carry weights of up to 10 kilograms.
Mr. Abdul Jebbar PB, the Group Managing Director of Hotpack Global, expressed pride in the partnership with Spinneys, stating, “Together, we are taking a leap forward in the retail industry by introducing PCR shopping bags that are not only environmentally friendly but also offer superior functionality. Hotpack remains committed to driving positive change and making a lasting impact on the global packaging landscape.”
Mr. Sunil Kumar, CEO of Spinneys, expressed excitement about the collaboration, emphasizing their dedication to reducing plastic waste and promoting a circular economy. He stated, “This collaboration aligns with our commitment to environmental responsibility and offers our customers a convenient and eco-friendly shopping experience. We applaud Hotpack’s dedication to producing sustainable packaging solutions and look forward to continuing our partnership in driving positive change within the retail industry.”
To ensure the highest standards of quality and environmental responsibility, the PCR resins used in the production of these shopping bags are certified by Global Recycling Standards, guaranteeing sustainability and contributing to the reduction of plastic waste.
Hotpack Global’s PCR shopping bags for Spinneys showcase the company’s ongoing efforts to revolutionize the packaging industry and inspire other retailers and consumers to adopt eco-friendly alternatives. By prioritizing sustainability, Hotpack aims to contribute to a greener and more sustainable future.
In addition to the launch of PCR shopping bags, Hotpack Global recently unveiled its technologically advanced facility at National Industries Park in Dubai, which is capable of consuming 100% PCR PET material, generating zero waste. Furthermore, the company plans to invest one billion Saudi Riyals to build the world’s largest sustainable packaging plant in the Kingdom, further reinforcing its commitment to circularity in its supply chains.
