**A pack produced by** [**Berry Global**](https://www.berryglobal.com/en/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **for Norwegian ice cream manufacturer** [**Diplom-Is**](https://www.diplom-is.no/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io)**’s Royal brand has won the** [**International Ice Cream Consortium**](http://www.internationalicecreamconsortium.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **(IICC) award for best packaging solution.**

Apparently, key factors in the decision included the introduction of a new non-carbon black colour to improve recyclability and design adjustments to improve efficiency and reduce waste during production. Through its collaboration with Berry, Diplom-Is claims it has pioneered the use of the non-carbon black, making the plastic containers for Royal ice cream easier to recycle for the first time.
