Sustainable innovation
Our research into lightweight, stronger, flexible and sustainable packaging materials, coupled with our investment in the latest equipment technology, will reduce your cost and carbon footprint.
Our customer journey starts by understanding what matters most
We assess five criteria to create the highest performing sustainable film
Where is the film material from?
- Oil
- Sugar cane
- Potato and corn starch
- Bio plastics

End of life
What happens after the film has been used?
- Oil based polymers for recycling
- Sugar cane polymers for recycling
- Potato and corn starch polymers for industrial composting
- Bio plastics for biodegrading

Recycled content
What recycled content is needed?
- We can reprocess our material into new products, using less virgin material with no loss of performance
- Importance of recycled content

Life cycle analysis
How to reduce carbon emissions?
- Reduce CO2 emissions
- End of life disposal options
- Assessing life cycle assessments (LCA) of different materials
We can achieve all these things
For every option, we develop and supply a film solution to match your priorities
Reducing our carbon footprint
1
Reconsider material
Material innovation is our priority. We can help each customer evaluate compostable, degradable and bio-based materials to see if these may be suitable.
2
Life-cycle analysis
We have commissioned the Carbon Trust to develop a tool to help understand the life-cycle-effect of choosing different packaging materials.
3
End-of-life options
We strive to drive recycling, re-use and working towards creating a circular economy for plastic packaging.
4
Reduce packaging
We identify oppurtunities to improve your packaging efficiency and reduce the overall amount of packaging used through material innovation and environmental reviews.
In-house mechanical recycling
We have a dedicated material recycling centre. This gives us the capability to operate as a registered waste recycler, segregate and recycle internally produced waste, strictly control recycling of different materials and re-introduce recycled material into different products.
Following recent investment, our recycling capacity has trebled, and we have extended the range of products we can recycle in house. We are also investigating the possibility of ‘washing’ materials prior to recycling, opening the door for us to re-process our customer’s waste
Our environmental responsibilities
Polythene proven to have lower carbon footprint than paper
Carbon dioxide emissions of the Flexipol polythene sack are 36% lower than the paper equivalent.
