Recycle More PET Packaging
PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a strong, lightweight, and transparent plastic that’s used in a variety of consumer packaging. Additionally, PET offers recycling potential, providing brands the option to market their product with attractive packaging that produces less waste. Up to 100% of a PET container can be composed of rPET, with no limit to the number of times the PET material can be reused for containers.
Traditional pressure-sensitive label adhesives contaminate the plastic and hinder recyclability. That’s why CleanFlake™ labels are the perfect complement to PET packaging since they improve the recycling process and increase rPET yield.
CleanFlake™ is a labeling solution that provides brand owners the opportunity to enhance product packaging while reducing their footprint. Take advantage of its many benefits to achieve packaging that both differentiates your brand and supports sustainability.
Now that you understand why more brands are switching to CleanFlake™ labels, let’s take a look at how the technology works.
Self-adhesive labels typically limit PET recycling, particularly food containers, due to adhesive contamination. Avery Dennison’s CleanFlake™ technology overcomes this issue by enabling labels to cleanly separate from PET containers during the sink/float washing process. With no adhesive residue left behind, PET recyclability dramatically improves.
CleanFlake™ labels work with a variety of PET packaging and consumer markets such as:
These labels work with a variety of markets and PET containers, making them an ideal labeling solution for practically any product. Available in clear films, white films, and semi-gloss paper, the design opportunities to differentiate your brand are countless!
Move toward beautiful eco-friendly packaging by selecting labels that are compatible with the recycling process. CleanFlake™ labels give you the design flexibility of traditional self-adhesive labels, but with the bonus feature of clean label separation for enhanced PET recycling. Add shelf appeal to products with attractive labels that support PET recyclability — talk about a win/win for your brand and the environment!
