PCR Materials Packaging: The Transformation of Corporate Sustainable Packaging

PCR Materials Packaging: The Transformation of Corporate Sustainable Packaging

Recycled materials have become a consensus among people in daily life. When choosing goods, the environmental protection and sustainability of outer packaging are also a point of concern. Continuously strict regulations have also promoted the trend of environmentally friendly packaging of goods.

In terms of sustainability, the material demand for packaging is mainly concentrated on recyclable materials, bio-based materials, degradable substitutes, recycled materials (PCR), etc., seeking more possibilities around sustainable development.

What is PCR material?

PCR recycled plastic, the full name is Post-Consumer Recycled material, which is a plastic material recycled and reused from plastic products used by consumers. These post-consumer recycled (PCR) resins are made from plastic waste discarded by consumers. The discarded plastics are collected from the recycling stream and then sorted, cleaned, and granulated by the mechanical recycling system to produce new plastic particles. The new plastic particles have the same structure as the plastic before recycling. When the new plastic particles are mixed with the original resin, various new plastic products are created. This method not only reduces carbon dioxide emissions but also reduces energy consumption.

As a new type of packaging material, PCR plastic has been widely used in the packaging field. The transformation of PCR bags and recyclable packaging bags is an innovation in the packaging industry. These products are designed to meet the functional requirements of traditional packaging while providing environmental advantages. For example, PCR bags are made from recycled plastic and are fully recyclable, creating a circular economy where materials are constantly reused rather than thrown away. By choosing recyclable bags, companies can reduce their reliance on single-use plastics and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Advantages of PCR packaging

• Helps reduce the amount of plastic packaging that is discarded, landfilled, or flows into other environments;

• High product quality and strong stability;

• Reduces dependence on fossil fuels to make virgin plastic;

• Reduces carbon footprint and saves energy;

• Increases socio-economic benefits in the value chain.

Whether you are a big brand or a small business, and what kind of products you produce, more and more customers will pay attention to the distribution chain and its impact on the recycling process. PCR bags are innovative sustainable packaging solutions developed to meet the different requirements of different consumers for the supply chain and recycling process of products. Unlike virgin resin or virgin plastic, PCR packaging is made from already existing plastic waste. Biopack is committed to providing the best sustainable packaging solutions, including PCR packaging and other recyclable packaging bags, and is an ideal partner for companies that want to have a positive impact on the environment.
