Tetra Pak founder Ruben Rausing had a basic philosophy: “a package should save more than it costs.” The 65-year-old company, based in Lund, Sweden, still lives by that point of view. In 2015, it sold 184 billion units of 136 different types of packages.
Dairy Foods learned more about the company when it visited Tetra Pak’s North American headquarters in Denton, Texas, during a day-long event for the media in October. Company executives talked about their research on the over-60 consumer market and provided tours of the facility’s pilot plant and factory.
