Can Flexible Packaging Ever Truly be Circular?

Presented by Dana Mosora, CEFLEX

In the circular economy, we are able to collect, sort and recycle all flexible packaging – and use it in sustainable end markets to substitute virgin materials. This session will outline the steps on that journey with a focus on driving value and quality through recycling processes; notably a multi-stakeholder Quality Recycling Process (QRP) making a significant boost to higher-value end-market applications from resulting recycled polymers.

Learn about pathways across multiple recycling streams, critical design elements and new packaging applications in recycled film grade polyethylene and recycled polypropylene, including collation shrink, pouches, labels and injection moulding. Discover the business case and economics which incentivize collection, increase quality of recycled household collected flexible packaging and create economic value.
