All about Post-Consumer Material in Collation Shrink

Plastic will continue to play an important role in flexible packaging and has to become in future a part of circular economy solutions. The new collation shrink film is using re-granulated PE taken from post-consumer waste. The packaging keeps its optical and mechanical properties.

WINDMÖLLER & HÖLSCHER takes responsibility for the implementation of sustainable packaging solutions for now and in the future.

  • Less natural resources consumed with the use of recycled PE resins
  • Recycled PE is made of post-consumer waste
  • Mechanical properties and machine processability equivalent to all virgin material
