Krehalon’s KreCycle™ PE films are recycle-ready Polyethylene (PE) based materials; suitable for mechanical recycling, without compromising on shelf life and sealing performance.
The development of these structures is based on CEFLEX Design for a Circular Economy (D4ACE) Guidelines where EVOH barrier in PO-based structures is advised as no more than 5% of total weight to enable recyclability.
All KreCycle™ PE materials have received certification for recyclability by Cyclos (Institute for Recyclability and Product Responsibility), achieving recyclability score of 94%.
KreCycle™ PE flexible thermoforming films are offered as a recyclable replacement to multilayer PA/PE and PA/EVOH/PE non-recyclable structures.
The KreCycle™ PE top web is a high barrier laminate OPE/PE-EVOH-PE structure offering wide sealing window to maintain high packing speeds. The laminate structure allows materials to be sandwich printed up to 10-colour for high visual effect.
The KreCycle™ PE forming web is a coextruded PE-EVOH-PE material, available in various thicknesses and designed to give good formability across various forming depths.
The KreCycle™ PE flowrap films are offered as a recyclable replacement to multilayer OPA/PE and PET/EVOH/PE non-recyclable structures.
The KreCycle™ PE flowrap is a high barrier OPE/PE-EVOH-PE laminate offering wide sealing window to maintain high packing speeds on both horizontal (HFFS) and vertical (VFFS) equipment. The laminate structure allows materials to be sandwich printed up to 10 colours for high visual effect.
All KreCycle™ PE vacuum pouches have a PE-EVOH-PE structure offered as a recyclable replacement to multilayer PA/PE and PA/EVOH/PE non-recyclable vacuum bags. These materials can be used in both vacuum and gas-flush applications and can be printed up to 10 colours.
