The ALDI SÜD Group is launching fully recyclable hand soap pumps for their own brand health and beauty products across several markets from 2025. This change will save approximately 220 tonnes of non-recyclable material each year.
The ALDI SÜD Group has developed fully recyclable all-plastic pumps for its private-label hand soap products. These pumps, designed to replace traditional multi-material versions, ensure that every part of the packaging can be recycled—helping to support a circular economy and conserve valuable environmental resources.
The new pumps will be introduced in the UK and Ireland in 2025, with ALDI and HOFER stores in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary, Italy, and Slovenia planned to follow. By eliminating non-recyclable components, ALDI is removing a common barrier to recycling, making it easier for customers to do their part.
With 90% of its product range consisting of private-label items, the company is determined to lead by example in increasing recyclability across its portfolio.
