BlueSky is committed to supporting a circular economy. A key element of our Sustainability Strategy has been reframing our supply chain to provide customers with sustainable packaging solutions. These solutions will continue to meet the varied demands of the markets we serve, without compromising on quality, and ensure that our clients continue to have access to relevant and sustainable rigid packaging.

At BlueSky, our core product categories include PET, PE, HDPE, and Aluminium. Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do – ensuring the packaging we supply is recyclable and supportive of the circular economy. As part of our consultative sales process, we also provide guidance on to help customers make informed, future-proof packaging choices.
We’re proud to be the UK’s only supplier of aluminium pill jars, offering a premium and infinitely recyclable option for health and wellbeing products. Aluminium’s durability and refill potential make it one of the most sustainable and versatile packaging materials available today.
Our expanding Mono-Material Lotion Pump range (PE and PP) provides 100% recyclable dispensing solutions designed for compliance with PPWR and UK EPR regulations, while maintaining premium aesthetics and reliable performance. Available in a variety of styles and finishes, these pumps are ideal for personal care, beauty, baby care, and home care applications.
We continue to make progress with our sustainability goals, achieving a 5% year-on-year increase in recyclable mono-material packs across plastics and metals.
In addition, we offer recycled content options across all PET and Aluminium bottles, helping brands to reduce their environmental impact without compromising on quality, style, or supply chain reliability.
As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and regulatory compliance, we are transitioning our standard plastic packaging ranges to incorporate a minimum of 30% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content.
Introduced in April 2022, the UK Plastic Packaging Tax applies to plastic packaging manufactured in or imported into the UK containing less than 30% recycled plastic, subject to certain exemptions.
At Berlin Packaging | BlueSky, many of our PET bottles and jars are already available with 35% PCR content as standard, with options containing up to 100% PCR across selected ranges.
PCR PET is manufactured using recycled plastic, helping brands reduce their reliance on virgin materials and supporting a more circular economy. PET is widely recyclable and can be recycled again where suitable collection and recycling infrastructure exists.
Our range of PCR PET packaging offers a choice of shapes, sizes and recycled-content levels, helping brands balance sustainability objectives with product protection, functionality and appearance.
