Sustainable Packaging

Meijer is willing to go the extra mile to do what is right for the environment, including making packaging more sustainable. This means improving recyclability, sharing how-to-recycle guidance, and using recycled materials. It can also mean creating reusable or compostable packaging or eliminating packaging altogether.

In 2018, Meijer set a goal to add a How2Recycle label, which clearly communicates recycling instructions, on 100 percent* of our True Goodness by Meijer products.

We met this goal in early 2023, and now the How2Recycle label is on an estimated 400 True Goodness by Meijer products.

As a result, we’re expanding that work toward other Meijer brand products. We’re also working toward making Meijer brand packaging 100 percent recyclable, reusable, or compostable, and making that packaging with at least 20 percent post-consumer recycled material. These goals are just one step on our journey to utilizing more sustainable packaging.

In addition to making our own packaging more sustainable, we also encourage our suppliers to improve recyclability, increase the recycled content of their own packaging and include the How2Recycle label.
