Consumers get through mountains of green PET bottles every single day. Modiform uses those empty bottles as raw material to make transparent green packs, which themselves are fully recyclable after use. This has one huge advantage: unlike black packs, these packs are easily detectable by waste processors and therefore do not end up in the incinerator.
As the packs have the right composition of materials, colour, and format, they can be recycled when consumers dispose of them with their plastic, metal, and drinking carton waste. Modiform started the transition to recyclable packs years ago, and the transparent green PET packs are considered an important recyclable alternative.
This sustainable step was also fully embraced by the market. The products are Cyclos-certified for several countries and can now bear the OPRL recycling logo in the UK!
Created to assess consumer waste recycling, the OPRL (the on-pack recycling label) is specific to the UK. Together with RECOUP, OPRL is committed to improving recycling and checking the veracity of sustainability claims. The OPRL recycling label guarantees a thorough analysis of the recyclability of packaging items, including Modiform’s transparent green packs.
