50% PCR Collation Shrink

Windmöller & Hölscher is aware of its responsibility for creating sustainable packaging solutions. One strategy of sustainability is based on the concept of the circular economy. This means that raw materials that have already been used can be used again and again in packaging solutions. The new collation shrink film presented by W&H uses recycled PE taken from post-consumer waste, while maintaining its optical and mechanical properties.

  • The use of recycled PE results in lower virgin resin consumption
  • The PCR is taken from post consumer LD/LLDPE waste
  • Film mechanical properties and machine processability are like virgin material
