Sustainable packaging

Two routes to a lower-impact pack: material that composts where collection exists, and mono-material that recycles where it does not. We make both, and we tell you which one your market can actually handle.

Choose by material

Each page covers the structures we run in that material, with MOQ and lead time.

Compostable — only if the collection exists

Industrial compostable film needs an industrial collection to actually compost. Home compostable is the stricter, rarer claim. If your market has no collection, a recyclable mono-material usually tells a more honest story.

Recyclable — keep it mono-material

A pack is recyclable when the whole structure is one polymer family. Add a foil or metallised layer for barrier and the same pack loses that claim. Decide which matters more before artwork.

Check the certificate covers your structure

Certificates are issued per material structure and per production site. Ask which structure the certificate names before you print a mark on the pack — we send the document your compliance team needs.

Seeing the eco options in the catalogue

Material is a filter on every category page, so you can jump straight to the recyclable or compostable variants of a format instead of hunting for a separate page. Start with pouches & bags and pick a material on the left.

For the paperwork side — which certificate covers which structure, and who holds it — see certifications & compliance and our explainer on biodegradable vs compostable.

Sustainability questions we get

Do you offer compostable and recyclable materials?

Yes — PE recyclable, PP recyclable, home compostable, industrial compostable and degradable structures are all in production, with certifications such as BPI, DIN CERTCO, GRS and BRC available.

Which material should I use?

It follows the product and the shelf life you need, not a general preference: a foil or metallised laminate for the longest barrier, kraft laminated to a liner for a natural look with real protection, and mono-material PE or PP where recyclability matters. Tell us what you pack, the fill weight and the target shelf life and we will quote two or three structures side by side.

Is the packaging food safe and BPA-free?

The food-contact layer is food-grade material and BPA-free. The declarations and test reports come from the material supplier and the manufacturing partner, so tell us the structure you are ordering and we will send the documents that cover it rather than a generic certificate.

What is the difference between recyclable and compostable?

Recyclable means the pack is a mono-material structure (PE or PP) that film recycling can take where collection exists. Compostable means a scheme will accept it — a different, stricter claim, certified per film structure and production site. We quote both, and we tell you plainly which certificate covers the structure you choose.

Send us the product and the market

Tell us what you pack and where you sell it. We will tell you which of the two routes is realistic — and which structure is certified for the claim you want to make.
