Plastic Action's Fund Project is to create a threaded tamper evident closure for the distilled spirit market that is made from 100% recycled material. This project seeks to introduce PCR into a product where PCR is not present today in the marketplace. Plascon is currently working with 2 major global distilled spirit/alcohol brands, one of which is Diageo.
