Collaborative Effort: Gluecom and Techlan Join Forces for E-Commerce Packaging's Sustainable Liner Production
In a significant move to promote eco-friendly practices, Ravenwood Packaging and Siegwerk have partnered with WestRock and STARLIM Spritzguss GmbH to accelerate the adoption of sustainable liner solutions in the packaging industry. This collaboration aims to reduce material waste and transportation costs, contributing to a greener future.
Meanwhile, Techlan is offering a recycled release liner to customers, who receive monthly reports showcasing their carbon reduction as a result of using this sustainable product. Techlan recycles used release liners from aerospace, automotive, and composite manufacturing processes, typically destined for trash, and transforms them into Re-Liner, a 100% recycled release liner that performs as well as new material, with shorter delivery times and 67% less carbon emissions compared to virgin materials.
Gluecom offers a range of adhesives suitable for different substrates and applications, working closely with Techlan to ensure their products work together reliably. This partnership ensures a seamless transition to sustainable packaging solutions.
Last year, Mondi switched more than 95% of its release liners and extrusion solutions to PEFC and FSC certified base paper sources. This move aims to support traceability and sourcing from responsibly managed forests, promoting sustainability practices within the industry.
The linerless label solution offered by Siegwerk and Ravenwood offers numerous benefits, including increased label yield per roll, reduced storage and transportation costs, and improved sustainability by minimizing landfill waste. This solution is available in various formats - coils, pancakes, spools, or bobbins - and can be cut to customer requirements.
As the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation is expected to be updated in 2025, brands are focusing on their sustainability efforts. Details about global packaging sustainability regulation in 2025 can be found in a guide available online.
Strategies for increasing the use of reusable packaging in supermarkets are also being discussed, as part of an ongoing effort to reduce the environmental impact of packaging waste.
It's worth noting that last year, Mondi switched more than 95% of its release liners and extrusion solutions to PEFC and FSC certified base paper sources. This move aims to support traceability and sourcing from responsibly managed forests, promoting sustainability practices within the industry.
In conclusion, the packaging industry is making strides towards sustainability, with partnerships, innovative solutions, and regulatory changes driving this shift. As more companies adopt sustainable practices, we can look forward to a greener future for packaging.
