Currently we have below film structures:
100% recyclable mono-material PE pouches
100% reccyclable mono-material PP pouches
It can be high barrier, and retort pouches.
Sustainable packaging is required for pet food packaging. Such as dog food pouches and cat food pouches, it will need either biodegradable pouches or 100% recyclable pouches. Since the function for biodegradable pouches are not very good to meet the packing demands of pet food; 100% recyclable pet food pouches are the main solution today. It is mostly 100% recyclable mono-material PE pet food pouches.
Even it is retorted pouches, it will also need 100% recyclable retort pet food pouches.
So currently Longdapac have 2 solutions of 100% recyclable high barrier PE function:
High barrier function on the outer PE film.
High barrier PE / PE
High barrier MDOPE / PE
BOPP barrier film has been bagged and passed under different cooking conditions. So we are ready to have 100% recyclable high barrier mono-material PP retort pouch.
The new 100% recyclable high barrier mono-material PP retort pouches with the film structure of BOPP/ High barrier OPP / RCPP; can stand 121-135 degree for 30 minutes. It can be with spout or without spout. With the high barrier function, it is perfect to replace the conventional material.
A discarded mineral water bottle is obviously easier to enter the recycling system than a plastic bag of laundry detergent and potato chips. In Longdapac’s view, plastic products made of single materials such as mineral water bottles have clear recycling links, high utilization rates, and low reprocessing costs, making them popular in the market. However, plastic products in flexible packaging such as laundry detergent and potato chips are often made by bonding multiple layers of plastic and glue, making recycling difficult.
Longdapac, the global leader in sustainable packaging, uses color printing technology to transform its packaging into a range of new high-quality mono-material recyclable solutions.
Recently, Longdapac has launched a 100% recyclable high barrier mono material multi-layer PE recyclable vacuum film, which has been certified as a 100% recyclable PE product by the recycling center cyclos HTP and the recycling alliance Interseroh.
Sustainable flexible packaging is considered better for several reasons, as it addresses environmental concerns, reduces resource consumption, and aligns with evolving consumer preferences for eco-friendly products.
Sustainable flexible packaging refers to packaging materials and designs that prioritize environmental, social, and economic responsibility throughout their life cycle. The aim is to minimize the impact of packaging on the environment while maintaining functionality and meeting the needs of consumers and industries. Sustainable flexible packaging is part of a broader movement within the packaging industry to address environmental concerns and promote more responsible practices.
