McDonald’s to phase out CFC foam containers in US
McDonald’s will stop using foam containers made with CFCs in the United States over 18 months to aid ozone protection. The move, praised by Sen Robert Stafford, aims to set an example for the industry while products remain in foam packaging abroad. Hydrocarbon-based agents will replace CFCs, with no expected cost to customers.
