The label materials currently included in the portfolio are suited for rigid PET and HDPE packaging in beverage, food, and home and personal care applications.
UPM Adhesive Materials, a global supplier of high-performance self-adhesive products, has introduced the new UPM ProCycle portfolio of recycling compatible label solutions. The portfolio brings together advanced adhesive technologies and circular products in a coherent offer, to help converters and packaging brand owners select solutions that deliver recognized recyclability performance.
The label materials currently included in the portfolio are suited for rigid PET and HDPE packaging in beverage, food, and home and personal care applications. The adhesive technologies, such as wash-off, ensure that materials separate cleanly during mechanical plastic recycling, including washing and grinding, supporting high-quality recyclate, the company said in a release.
UPM ProCycle solutions are designed to deliver consistent adhesion, efficient converting and high print quality for plastics, fiber and glass packaging. All products in the portfolio are externally recognized as recycling compatible across packaging types and markets, and independent testing assures specific label functionalities, such as clean release.
“As packaging recyclability requirements and regulations evolve, UPM ProCycle helps converters and brands navigate the changes and stay compliant. Backed by UPM’s adhesive and sustainability expertise, the portfolio makes it easy to select label solutions for recyclability performance,” states Suvi Rasa, manager of circularity and sustainable product design at UPM Adhesive Materials.
The portfolio will continue to expand with adhesive technologies and label products, addressing evolving circular packaging needs.
