THE IMPORTANCE OF PLASTICS FOR PACKAGING Compared to alternative materials, plastic is one of the most sustainable materials available for packaging applications. It is widely used to manufacture films, bags, trays, bottles, and containers, and it has excellent overall properties such as impact and tensile strength, clarity, processability, colorability, and durability. Optimization of the plastic recycling process along the value chain is therefore of the highest importance and will foster a circular economy that helps to achieve the plastic industries’ sustainability targets.

Color can be added to plastics used in medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging for brand recognition, increased appeal, or drug identification. Formulated with bio-based polymers and pre-tested raw materials, these color and additive solutions help reduce the carbon footprint of medical plastics and mitigate the risk of non-compliance.  Formulated with pre-tested raw materials, this range of additives helps enhance the performance and functionality of plastics used in medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging and mitigate the risk of non-compliance.

Home // Closing the Loop with Post-consumer Recycled PET Beverage Bottles For example, an EU directive for use of recycled PET (rPET) in beverage bottles will increase from 25 percent in 2025 to 30 percent in 2030. As a result, brand owners want to ensure the oxygen scavengers used in their PET bottles maintain efficacy with increasing levels of rPET.
