Up to 60% PCR material and suitable for food contact
This new mono-material tube has a better environmental impact by using recycled materials including 60% of post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials and is recyclable as well! Another advantage of Polyfoil® EcoPro is its EU compliance. Regulation 2022/2016 mandates the use of mechanically recycled plastics for food contact, and the Polyfoil® EcoPro containing rHDPE (PCR material) conforms to Commission Regulation (EU) 2022/1616 for food contact materials.
Enhanced barrier properties
Polyfoil® EcoPro is a revolutionary
new product that offers several key
advantages over standard coex tubes. One of the most significant
benefits of Polyfoil® EcoPro is its great
barrier properties.
Reduced Material
The Polyfoil® EcoPro tube, paired with LowPro Caps, offers significant advantages due to its reduced material usage, featuring a wall thickness of 0.35 that makes it lightweight and enables plastic savings compared to standard coextruded tubes.
High-definition decoration
In addition to its outstanding barrier properties, Polyfoil®EcoPro also offers high-definition decoration. Polyfoil® EcoPro uses state-of-the-art technologies such as DigitAll360 and offset printing to deliver high-definition decoration. This allows for incredibly detailed and vivid designs to be printed directly onto the tube surface.
Recycled, recycable and optimized CO2 footprint
Polyfoil® EcoPro also has an optimized CO2 footprint of 40% compared to standard coex tubes. Polyfoil® EcoPro has a recyclability rating of "Grade A" from Recyclass for a barrier tube. The tubes can be easily and efficiently recycled, further reducing its environmental impact and making it an ideal choice for companies wanting to reduce their carbon footprint and promote sustainability.
