Shrink Sleeves Aid Recycling

Inks wash off during recycling process for high value clear recycled PET

Fortis Solutions Group continues our tradition of developing and testing sustainable packaging materials with RENEW shrink sleeves for PET containers. The goal of recycling PET containers is clear PET flake, which is a high-value and high-demand material. Sleeve label inks can negatively impact the rPET yield and cause contamination during the recycling process.

RENEW shrink sleeves contain a primer that allows the inks to wash away from the sleeve label and filter out during the recycling process. This allows the sleeve to be recycled along with the bottle rather than removed as waste.

The intent of brand owners should be to make packaging selections that will positively impact the quality of recycled PET. RENEW shrink sleeves are the perfect solution for brands to support the circular economy for packaging and to market that message.

Fortis Solutions Group can guide you through the process of selecting the proper sustainable packaging for your application.
