Hello
Does anyone know why the meadow milk is being sold in tetrapacks again instead of white bidons? I actually thought it was better "waste-wise" before.
We usually buy organic, but the higher fat content of organic milk is a problem for my partner.
Greetings cru
Good morning @cru009,
Migros Lucerne is responding to customer requests for Tetra-Top packaging.
Kind regards
Frederica
Merci for the answer. A "customer request" aimed at non-separable waste? Doesn't really sound like the Migros strategy.
As long-time meadow milk drinkers, we were also very surprised about the packaging change. I hadn't been able to read anything about this "customer request" here in the forum.
Migros has now lost at least one meadow milk-drinking family; we are drinking the "normal" past milk from the recyclable bottle again.
So my customer wish is that you do NOT introduce this crap in Migros Aare! I have no idea what these customer wishes were.
Now the packaging can no longer be recycled and the milk no longer comes from the region. I don't understand how "green" Migros is suddenly taking a step backwards in terms of environmental protection just because a few customers are too stupid to shop. I don't know how else you can confuse two different types of milk. You just have to look at what you buy.
Thank you for asking, so far I'm actually happy with my life. This could be because I don't always say yes to everything and question certain things. Especially when you hear for the umpteenth time from Migros that it was a customer request, but they rarely respond to customer requests here.
And for the life of me, I don't understand why it's a "me view" if you want something that contributes to environmental protection.
So, discussion over from my side. My point of view is above.
Technically, the recycling of beverage cartons has been realized and it is to be hoped that it will be implemented across the board as quickly as possible. There are already opportunities for this, but you have to look for them and take the chargeable bags to the collection points.

P.S. I watched the interesting movie and found out that there are also free collection points. I still have to buy the bags myself for the time being.
@sirio60: Does everything that is technically possible really make sense? Why bother with this type of packaging in every case when there are simpler solutions? In addition, another type of packaging is not necessarily customer-friendly either.
But this is also an industry that is presumably fearing for its existence.
In view of the gigantic quantities produced and consumed, the manufacturers of beverage cartons - unless they also produce plastic bottles - will probably not have to fear for their existence. As a layman, I cannot presume to judge whether and to what extent plastic bottles should be simpler or more sensible than beverage cartons or vice versa. Accordingly, I don't want to promote one type of packaging or the other. I simply wanted to point out that beverage cartons can also be recycled. But not 100%: only the paper fibers are recycled, while plastic and aluminum are incinerated. However, because they cannot be recycled, the caps of all plastic bottles and resealable drinks cartons are also incinerated.
"But the cap of every plastic bottle and resealable drinks carton is also incinerated because it cannot be recycled."
Why is that? Is it the same material as the bottle, or am I wrong?
