Tosca, Avery Dennison to drive supply chain efficiency

Tosca, a leader in sustainable packaging and supply chain solutions, has partnered with global materials science company Avery Dennison to transition to reusable plastic pallets and significantly reduce CO2 emissions across its European supply chain. Leveraging Tosca’s innovative pooling model, the collaboration has delivered operational efficiencies and cut nearly 500 tons of CO2 emissions in a single year.

Tosca introduced its durable, reusable L1 plastic pallets, designed to improve supply chain efficiency, minimize waste, and reduce environmental impact. Initially focused on replacing Avery Dennison’s existing plastic pallets, the partnership quickly expanded to incorporate a larger portion of the company’s supply chain.

Beyond environmental benefits, Tosca’s reusable pallets offer hygienic and efficient solutions for warehouse operations. This alignment with Avery Dennison’s goals not only addresses logistical challenges but also provides a cost-effective, reliable alternative to wooden pallets, especially in the post-pandemic market.

“Our focus is on the recyclability and circularity of our packaging,” said Violeta Gómez Valdivieso, Central Packaging Leader at Avery Dennison. “By partnering with Tosca, we are moving in the right direction. Their solutions not only help us meet regulatory requirements but also align with our sustainability objectives.”
