Amerplast offers a wide variety of barrier laminates: lidding films with Reclose and Peel effect for easy opening, flow pack films, bags and pouches. We combine excellent barrier properties, such as EVOH or AlOx and visuality, with sustainable solutions like renewable bio based raw materials and recyclable mono laminates.
Market trends
- Both the European Union’s Circular Economy Strategy as well as the UN’s sustainable development goals are aiming to reduce food waste by 50% by the year of 2030. This will require actions throughout the food chain.
- Sustainability is one of today’s key trends and future requirements. Recyclability and the use of recycled or biobased materials are the features now sought after in sustainable flexible packaging solutions. According to the European Union plastics strategy, all plastic packaging should be recyclable or reusable by 2030.
- Increasingly demanding recycling targets at a European level (from the current 22.5% to 50% by 2025) and more efficient Extended Producer Responsibility schemes across Europe create requirements and pressure to increase the recyclability of packaging. Amerplast has developed fully recyclable films and laminates that are recyclable in the existing recycling streams.
