Eco-packaging solutions:
- Biopolyethylene I`m green (Braskem). It can be used in combination with ordinary polyethylene.
- Reuse up to 30% recycled plastic (production waste from our production mixed with regular plastic).
- Packaging made from 100% monomaterial (PP, PE) is 100% recyclable. Most part of our assortment is 100% recyclable.
Eco-friendly solutions in packaging decoration:
· Silk-screen printing.
· Full-color eco-printing.
The weight of the paint is very small, so products with such decoration are 100% recyclable. These types of decoration can be applied to any product from all types of plastics.
The main plastic polluting is disposable tableware and plastic bags. Tetra-packs, doy-packs, and any multilayer packaging (except of special eco-solutions) are non-recyclable. About 80% of PET bottles are not recycled, because of wrong sorting (non-recyclable PVC labels, not screwed polypropylene caps, fluid residues, etc.).
Why eco-packaging is needed?
· The market for organic products and ingredients shows an annual growth of 15-17%;
· The society has formed an eco-lifestyle, commitment to healthy lifestyles;
· Сonscious consumption and eco-expertise of buyers.
Ways to improve the environmental profile of production (rule of 4 "R"):
Reduce - reduce the weight of packaging, reduce harmful emissions, reduce the use of water, electricity and other resources.
Recycle - use recycled packaging or produce the product in a package ready for recycling.
Reuse - reuse packaging.
Renew - the scope of innovative solutions: packaging and ingredients made from renewable raw materials.
The material has all the properties of conventional polyethylene, but
differs in the method of production (made from renewable raw materials - sugar cane). It is 100% recyclable, can be painted in different colors by our masterbatches, and also decorated with foil and silk-screen printing.
In the case of manufacturing a bottle with a soft-touch surface the bottle will consist of I'M Green only 80% (20% is a soft-touch layer).
Material is uitable for products manufactured under the certificates of Ecocert, COSMEBIO, NATRUE, Soil Association, ICEA, BDIH, etc.
