The UK’s first fully recyclable crisp (chip) packet has been made possible by the inclusion of biodegradable polymer-based barrier protection from Aquapak. The new paper packet, developed by The British Crisp Co in partnership with flexible packaging manufacturer Evopak, is reliant on Aquapak’s polyvinyl alcohol-based Hydropol technology to provide the essential barrier protection. In addition to Hydropol, a very thin layer of vacuum-deposited aluminium helps to keep the crisps fresh, but it doesn’t impact the recyclability of the packets, Aquapak said. According to its maker, Hydropol can be recycled, re-pulped, and composted, and it is compatible with anaerobic digestion.

Biodegradable vs Compostable: What's the Difference? Both decompose into natural materials, but compostable products have specific requirements in terms of decomposition timeframe and circumstances that are validated by a set of standards from organizations like ASTM.   LG Chem's certified compostable materials, COMPOSTFUL™, is a bioplastic that decomposes within 6 months to 2 years under specific conditions. It can be compounded with various biodegradable materials such as PBAT, PBS, and PLA. #COMPOSTFUL™ is used for a variety of purposes including Food packaging (produce bags & food wraps), Barrier, Mulch Films, Paper coating, etc.   #LGChem #WeConnectScience #Biodegradable #Compostable

Sustainability in packaging is no longer just a trend—it’s a priority. Our latest brochure dives into how GCR is addressing this challenge with flexible packaging solutions that don’t compromise on performance.   From Recycled Polyolefins #CICLIC to advanced Mineral Masterbatches #GRANIC, we’re providing sustainable solutions to help businesses reduce carbon footprints and integrate recycled materials.   Learn more about our Flexible Packaging Solutions below!

Crystallisable PET (cPET) labels are made of the same polymer as the bottle, meaning the bottle and the label are fully recyclable together and there is no need for separation which you can imagine enables easier recycling. It also provides more rPET for the market! There’s tremendous value to be found in this solution so we got together with market leaders and our competitors throughout the supply chain to prove that cPET is the future of shrink sleeve labels. Find out more about the cPET Consortium led by kp in our sustainability report: https://ow.ly/ax9r30sAikH #InvestinginBetter #ClosetheLoop #Recyclability

EVG™ offers a bio-reactive landfill biodegradable* alternative to traditional foam coolers and biodegrades 92% in less than four years. Reach out to us today to learn more about EVG™ - https://lnkd.in/grMb-pZz. *Cooler material has tested to biodegrade 92% in less than four years. Tested under conditions that simulate both wetter and biologically active landfills using the ASTM D5511 test. Wetter or biologically active landfills may not exist in all areas. The stated rate and extent of degradation does not mean that the product will continue to decompose. Not for retail sale.

The solution to finding an alternative to traditional polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cling films for fresh food applications is outlined in a new White Paper from Berry Global, Inc.. #flexiblepackaging #recyclability #foodpackaging #sustainability #circulareconomy #recycledmaterials #resourceefficiency

📦 Did you know that paper packaging using conventional coatings such as polyethylene (PE) or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is not 100% recyclable? Introducing these sustainable water-based barrier coatings that fortify paper against moisture, oil and grease! The use of bio-sourced constituents in the coating formulation enables easy repulping and recycling. With the rise in green consumerism, the adoption of eco-friendly packaging aligns perfectly with your business's interests. Their versatility across various industries—from food packaging to logistics—make them a valuable addition to any business’s packaging approach and can be easily applied by standard coating equipment. Explore how you can shift to eco-packaging that is reliable in safeguarding your products here: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/g-pvMGB6 #IPI #Innovation #Technology #Sustainability #Packaging

Sustainability is always Top of our priorities.

PulPac with its technology is tackling the massive demand for sustainable packaging and providing an alternative technique for green packaging. Dry molding uses generic pulp that is readily available everywhere and creates all types of sustainable packaging materials like lids, cups, cutlery, and trays. Their licensing model also provides the technology to interested people along with all the technical and community support. The production of packaging material through dry molding is also hassle-free with less cycle time and low water consumption. Dry molding is not only environmentally friendly but also competitive in terms of cost, quality, and speed.
