According to statistics from the Plastic Association, 500 billion plastic labels are not recyclable each year, resulting in 37.13 million tons of carbon emissions. This is due to the ink printed on the surface of plastic labels used on consumer products, which makes it difficult to recycle them into new materials. As a result, they are often treated as waste.
The packaging manufacturing supply chain is facing severe challenges. How can suitable recycling solutions be found to make label recycling possible? Cymmetrik has invested resources in advanced material research and development, with a forward-looking market application, launching the innovative product EcoStrip environmental stripping coating. They aim to provide EcoStrip film material recycling solutions.
EcoStrip technology, exclusively developed by Cymmetrik, uses a printing method that allows labels to detach from plastic and ink layers during the process of soaking in hot water. This not only enhances resource recovery efficiency but also avoids wastewater pollution.
Products using EcoStrip coating present an easy-to-peel state after soaking.
EcoStrip is applied between the substrate film and ink, utilizing a resin that can swell and peel off.
