Tetra Pak has launched a new 48 oz (1,420 mL) size in its Tetra Brik Aseptic Edge carton portfolio for the United States and Canada, expanding packaging options for dairy, juice, plant-based and ready-to-drink coffee manufacturers.

Produced at Tetra Pak's headquarters in Denton, Texas, the new carton features a sloped top and rectangular front panel designed to help products stand out on refrigerated shelves while supporting extended shelf life.

The package incorporates the LightWing 30 tethered cap, a hinged flip cap that snaps closed for later consumption and remains attached to the carton to help prevent cap loss.

The 48 oz carton also includes large forward-facing panels that provide additional space for branding and product messaging, including compatibility with Tetra Pak Custom Printing solutions.

According to Tetra Pak, the carton base is engineered to improve packing, palletization and transportation efficiency. The package is recyclable and is made primarily from renewable materials, including paperboard sourced from Forest Stewardship Council-certified forests and other controlled sources.

Tetra Pak said the new 48 oz Tetra Brik Aseptic Edge format is now available throughout the United States and Canada.
