Printpack’s Post

Through its #RecyclingIsReal campaign, PLASTICS (Plastics Industry Association) has taken the lead in combatting the falsehoods and misinformation around recycling that are eroding trust in the industry. At NPE: The Plastics Show, PLASTICS’ Stephanie Strategos Polis shared how the campaign’s series of videos highlight the human element of the business, as well as the innovative new technologies used in recycling to demonstrate to policymakers in both government and large corporations and to the public how important the business is to communities and the environment. Said Polis, “By showing the people who are doing it and the act of recycling happening every day, it’s very hard to deny it.” Read more and watch one of the campaign videos at: https://buff.ly/4atAcDG #circularity #sustainability #recycling #plasticscircularity #packagerecycling #plasticsrecyclings

Deinking drive transforms plastic recycling efforts. Read more about this feature article where we learn about Deinking from Siegwerk https://buff.ly/3yNkVRf #Deinking #PlasticRecycling #Siegwerk #SustainableRecycling #GreenTechnology #CircularEconomy #EcoFriendly #RecyclingInnovation #PackagingRecycling #EnvironmentalImpact #RecyclingSolutions #IndustryInsights

Without recyclable packaging, there is no incentive to invest into recycling infrastructure. However, without a good recycling infrastructure there is limited upside to producing recyclable packaging. This creates a chicken and egg situation, limiting progress. This is particularly true in the context of deinking. Despite a strong demand for high-quality transparent recyclates, hot-washing infrastructure remains scarce and a large portion of print structures is non-deinkable. Siegwerk aims to address this from both sides through industry collaboration to develop design for deinking standards and through the development of deinking and delamination products such as washable inks and primers that have been specially formulated to be fit for purpose, allowing reformulation towards deinkable products per customer request. On the other hand, we address the infrastructure problem through providing our expert process know-how and specialized deinking chemistry. Siegwerk has years of pioneering expertise in solutions that enable the deinking of paper and board substrates. We are expanding that expertise to encompass a broad range of plastic substrates, from rigid and flexible packaging to labeled PET bottles.

We can help you create packaging that is circular from the start and will fit in todays recycling stream. Rigid HDPE and PETE products can be recycled curbside and our GreenLite products use less plastic and can meet recycling standards. With that said, the industry is working together towards solutions that will improve the waste management issue. If your products use hard-to-recycle film and flexible packaging, there are additional steps your consumers can take to help your brand be circular. Consider starting with circularity in mind rather than creating extra steps your customers need to take to be effective. #recyclingisreal #partnershipsmatter #plasticrecycling
