100% Recyclable Plastics

100% Recyclable Plastics

100% recyclable mono materials are an ecologically sensible alternative to the conventional multilayer and composite films, because they can be separated successfully in the recycling loop and can be reused. The recycling of plastic packaging allows for an equal usage of the upcycled product compared to the original product.

Here, the industry already offers a variety of possibilities, which meet most of the requirements of the packaging industry and, therefore, offer a more sustainable alternative to composite films. The development of mono materials, which have all the same properties as composite films, is still ongoing. VARIOVAC already offers you the following, state-of-the-art options:
