Visy
Ready to power the circular economy? At Visy, we turn recyclable materials into sustainable packaging. From cardboard boxes, water bottles and jam jars to food and beverage cans, we are using recycled content to power Australia and New Zealand’s food and beverage packaging industry. Join us in making a difference! Visy is powering the circular economy, closing the loop between packaging, remanufacturing and recycling. Over 75 years, we’ve grown to 7,000 employees and 150 global operations –predominately in Australia and New Zealand. We are a global leader in recycled PET (rPET) and recycled HDPE (rHDPE) production and packaging. We take 92,000 tonnes of plastics each year and make approximately two billion plastic containers and preforms.
Our unmatched scale and capability with proven expertise and state-of-the-art facilities guarantees supply. Our nine plastic manufacturing sites includes Australia’s first and largest food-grade recycled plastics facility in Smithfield, New South Wales. Our expertise and infrastructure have allowed us to manufacture 100% rPET bottles and Australia’s first 50% recycled plastic milk bottle. An independent comparative lifecycle analysis shows Visy’s recycled plastic slashes water and greenhouse gas emissions by nearly two thirds.
