This is recycled material made from plastic waste generated during industrial manufacturing. Materials such as edge trim are not included because they are directly reintegrated into the same production process.
This is plastic that has been recycled after being used and discarded by consumers. Users include households and commercial, industrial and institutional facilities. PCR material also includes plastics returned from the distribution chain.
Chemical recycling breaks down plastic waste, such as films or laminates, into its basic chemical components. It enables the production of material with virgin plastic properties suitable for demanding applications, such as contact with foods.
Bio-circular materials are derived from waste and residues of biological origin, sourced from agriculture, forestry, and related industries.
Our closed-loop recycling concept applies to stretch film, bale wrap, and timber covers, to name a few. Our approach helps reduce your operation’s carbon footprint and is a convenient recycling solution.
Used film is collected and then regranulated by waste management companies. It is delivered to us in granular form, and we use it to produce new film.
While the quality of recycled raw materials has improved significantly in recent years, meeting the demands of certain product categories continues to present difficulties.
It is easier to replace virgin materials in some product groups than in others. For instance, our high-quality timber wrapping and waste-management films already incorporate 100% recycled materials without compromising performance.
However, stretch films must combine elasticity with strength, to ensure pallet stability and logistical security. This is harder to achieve with recycled materials. Additionally, the use of recycled material affects a film’s grip, decreasing its functionality.
Mechanically recycled material might affect the following film properties:
Recycled plastic in food packaging is restricted to chemically recycled material. However, the plastics industry is researching and testing methods to incorporate mechanically recycled materials into food-contact applications.
Our ICSS Plus certificate ensures credible verification of raw material origins, providing full traceability at every step of our supply chain.
We fully support the European Union’s mission to reduce the environmental effects of plastic packaging and promote its circularity.
The European Commission has put forward a revision of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive (PPWD). Its objectives include the following.
We can help you declare these activities though our recycled plastics traceability certification (RecyClass), which verifies the origin and chain of custody of a product’s recycled materials.
In most industries there is much talk about CSRD. This new EU directive mandates companies to report on their sustainability activities in the same way that they report on their financial activities.
The optimum percentage of recycled content in your packaging film depends on several factors, including its intended usage, the capabilities of your production line, and your sustainability goals.
We are here to help. We work closely with you to determine the optimal percentage of recycled content for your unique requirements, ensuring a balance between functionality, efficiency, and environmental effects.
