Food & beverage processors always are looking for tactics to minimize packaging waste. They continue to pursue traditional methods, such as reducing plastic use or recycling that material, but they're also taking a serious look at a long-ago practice: refilling.

This e-handbook has stories on both reusable packaging and recent efforts by Volpi Foods, Homefree, Kellanova, Nissin and others to reduce and recycle.
