ORGANIC YOGURT IN R-PET CUP
This is what “real recycling” looks like
Together with the Austrian companies Starlinger Viscotec and Biohof Zauner, we are demonstrating how a circular economy can work.
We have developed the first white yogurt cup made of 100% rPET, which can be recycled after use and reprocessed into a yogurt cup and has the loewst CO2 footprint compared to other packaging solutions.
we are awarded
with the Green Packaging Star Award 2021
At the end of October, rPET packaging with its closed recycling loop was honoured with the Green Packaging Star Award 2021, which was presented at the Austrian Packaging Day in Vienna. The joint project had previously been honoured with the TRIGOS 2021, Austria’s award for responsible business, in the “Exemplary Projects” category. Numerous international trade media reported on the extraordinary project, which was also nominated for the World Star Global Packaging Award 2022.
Winner of World Star Award
WorldStar Award 2022 for school milk packaging
The World Packaging Organisation has announced the winners of the WorldStar Awards 2022. Among them was the joint project between our partners Austria’s school milk producers, Starlinger Viscotec and Greiner Packaging, which involved producing sustainable cups from 100% recycled PET (rPET) to be filled with school milk for the state of Upper Austria.
Sustainabitlity project
Blister caps made from 100% PCR material
Our latest project is a compelling example of how sustainable recycling can be successfully implemented. In collaboration with Henkel, we have developed an innovative solution that demonstrates how plastic waste can be transformed into valuable resources: PET packaging from the yellow bag has been recycled into a new film approved for direct food contact.
This film now serves as the basis for Henkel’s new packaging solution, specifically for toilet blister packs. By doing so, the loop is closed – turning used packaging into a high-quality new product.
This project showcases how partnerships and advanced technologies can drive the circular economy and transform waste into valuable resources.
Pac2Pac
We close the loop
Together with our partners: Bachmann Group, Sesotec, Krones Recycling and Starlinger Viscotec we have launched the Pac2Pac pilot project. In this project, we have the honour of decontaminating the recycled and already sorted material from the yellow bag in order to restore the permitted food contact and extrude it into a new film. This can be used to create new packaging. Old becomes new.
