Sustainability
Bio based materials
Biobased materials save fossil fuels because they are produced from renewable raw materials rather than petroleum.
Mostly, they are derived from starch and cellulose from corn or sugar beets.
The plants used only release as much CO² during processing as they absorbed during their growth phase. Therefore, they are considered more environmentally friendly than petroleum-based plastics.
However, they are not automatically biodegradable!
DeCo with PCR inner layer
PCR (post consumer recyclate) contributes to a circular economy and gives plastic back the value it deserves.
By using PCR, less fossil fuel is consumed because no new plastics need to be created for this purpose; instead, existing resources are processed and reused.
In a DeCo application, PCR can be processed excellently because, in addition, only the thin outer layer needs to be colored in the desired color, thus saving additional masterbatch. This also reduces costs.
The main part of the wall thickness consists of the resource-saving PCR.
These items are 100% recyclable.

The main part of the wall thickness consists of the resource-saving PCR.
The layer of uncolored virgin material applied on the inside prevents the recycled material from coming into contact with the filling material. This solution is particularly attractive for the cosmetics industry.
These items are 100% recyclable because they do not contain additives and are made from unmixed material.
ReCo with foamed main layer
Physical foamed articles can be processed in 3-layer applications.
Foamed articles are lighter than conventional hollow articles. This saves CO² during transportation.
In addition, less material is needed, which saves resources.
