NEW AND IMPROVED SOL-EFFICIENT AND R-CLOSING HB EFFICIENT SOLUTIONS

SP GROUP is committed to research and development to find environmentally friendly solutions that keep us moving forwards in terms of sustainability. This is why our R&D department is constantly immersed in new projects designed to develop new structures and packaging, but also to improve existing ones. Such is the case of our applications with SOL EFFICIENT and R-CLOSING HB EFFICIENT top film.

SOL EFFICIENT is an easy-peel flexible film for welding directly onto rPET trays – a combination of top film and base web that makes it the perfect packaging solution. It has an oxygen barrier and water vapour barrier, and is a very tough, watertight, sustainable material. R-CLOSING HB EFFICIENT combines rigidity and flexibility, and is resealable. No chlorine products are used in the production process. It also ensures the lid closes smoothly and firmly on the tray, thereby increasing the period of preservation.

SP GROUP has worked on both structures to achieve a density of <1 and comply with the requirements of the PLASTIC SENSE guide and the PETCORE guidelines. The requirements are that top films must have a density of <1 for the PET trays to be recyclable. This is so that the top film floats to the surface in the sink-float tank, while the PET sinks to the bottom. This way the PET flakes do not become contaminated.

We should point out, however, that the conventional structures are still available, in addition to these reformulations. This means clients can choose one or the other according to the degree of sustainability and recyclability they require.

Our greatest satisfaction comes from being able to help our clients. If you have a project in mind and are looking for packaging solutions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
