“Tetra Pak’s 44-year journey in Saudi Arabia is a testament to our unwavering commitment to the Kingdom’s economic development and Vision 2030 goals,” said Niels Hougaard, managing director of Tetra Pak Arabia. “Our world-class local production contributes to Saudi Arabia’s food security and supports local food and beverage customers in rolling out innovative food products in the local and export markets.”

As a first mover in carton packages recycling in the Kingdom, Tetra Pak invested $3 million in Saudi Arabia’s first comprehensive carton packages recycling solution. 

Partnering with Obeikan Paper Industries and Saudi Top Plastics, the recycling facility has the capacity to recycle 8,000 tons of carton packages annually, demonstrating the company’s commitment to supporting customers’ sustainability goals and aligning with Saudi Vision 2030’s circular economy targets.
