More than a manufacturer – Sustainability in Action

ALPLA doesn’t just bring production closer — we build sustainability into every step. Even with standard products, we bring you more than just a bottle. At our factories in Missouri and Kentucky we:

  • Use energy-efficient machinery
  • Run closed-loop water systems
  • Recycle in-process material with low scrap rates
  • Offer In-house rPET processing (recycled PET)

This means we can offer:

  • Packaging made from up to 100% rPET and 100% PCR
  • Lightweight designs that reduce material by up to 30%
  • Fully recyclable monomaterials – no silicone or TPEs required

Local production also avoids unnecessary freight, helping you achieve your Scope 3 carbon reduction goals faster. We support both regional producers and national brands with scalable solutions. Whether you’re a mid-size co-packer or a fast moving consumer brand, our teams in Jefferson City and Bowling Green are ready to adapt to your needs. ALPLA’s regional footprint ensures your packaging is produced close to where it's needed — not on another continent.

Let’s calculate your CO₂ savings

If your packaging currently travels 850 miles from Denver to St. Louis and you shift to a local ALPLA site just 50 miles from your filling location:

  • That’s up to 85–90% less CO₂ emissions per truckload
  • A typical 850-miles shipment emits ~1,200 kg CO₂
  • The same load, shipped just 50 miles, emits only ~70 kg CO₂

And that’s before considering the additional savings from using recycled materials like rPET. Use our interactive tool to see how switching to local packaging production can reduce your carbon footprint. And also see the impact of choosing rPET over PET.

Over 150 companies across the United States already source their packaging from ALPLA.
