Including PCR content in plastic packaging
PCR plastic content, or post-consumer recycled content is becoming increasingly important for companies looking to transition to more sustainable plastic packaging without sacrificing important features. New regulations also demand a sustainable end-of-life for packaging and customers are calling for a more sustainable packaging for their purchases.
From waste to ressource
Mondi leads the way in sustainable packaging with PCR plastic content. PCR content in packaging promotes circularity, reduces virgin material extraction, and ensures regulatory compliance while still meeting packaging requirements, including convenience, safety and effective barrier protection and remaining cost-effective.
