This fall, in conjunction with the New York City Planters Grove opening, Planters officially announced another sustainable brand initiative: All Planters Dry Roasted Peanut products are now available in plastic packaging.

The new plastic package is 100 percent recyclable, BPA-Free and has 84 percent less packaging material than the former glass jar by weight. The change from glass to plastic will result in an estimated 25 percent reduction in trucks on the road to transport the products. Combined with other efforts, we've conserved 5.6 million pounds in packaging and shipping materials.

Planters continues to invest in greening their facilities through energy and water conservation, as well as waste reduction.
