Packaging Efficiency

Packaging is an important part of providing wholesome, high-quality products to our consumers. At Kellogg we strive to design packaging that meets this demand while minimizing the use of packaging materials. Innovation in packaging technology allows us to continually reduce the weight and volume of our packaging. We also strive to optimize the use of materials that are recyclable and contain significant recycled content.

• The first box of Kellogg’s^® Corn Flakes^® came off the line packaged in 100 percent recycled paperboard? Kellogg has used recycled board for most of our products since 1906. We are one of the largest users of recycled paperboard.
• That by taking out the cardboard backing on Kellogg’s^® Special K^® cereal bars, we’ve eliminated 4 million pounds of packaging?
• More than 3 million pounds of plastic packaging was eliminated through liner reductions in 2006?
