US-based plastic packaging producer Berry Global recently announced a partnership with Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) for the production and application of recycled polymers

Berry International also plans to work with "trusted suppliers" to introduce environmentally sustainable packaging

"As a leader in sustainable packaging, we highly value innovative ways to help us recycle valuable plastics," said Tom Salmon, chairman and CEO of Berry International

"SABIC's timeline for starting semi-commercial production is one of the fastest we've seen in the industry, and we want to work with them to support the circular economy
," said Tom Salmon
