Our good intentions
were heard
Sustainable packaging in the beverage industry is a mission not only possible, but also necessary.
"Most of my fellow students went to other cities or abroad, and I think, apparently, it's my karma that all the jobs I had to do are related to Kaunas", - laughs the general manager of the historic brewery Wolfs Engelman.
The packaging waste management organization VšĮ "Gamtos ateitis" has launched a new initiative that will encourage Lithuanian manufacturers and importers to use more environmentally friendly product packaging, share good practices and strengthen the dissemination of ecological initiatives in Lithuanian business and society.
