GreenStream sustainable packaging

GreenStream sustainable packaging

Sustainable flexible packaging

Supporting sustainable packaging goals for brands, C-P’s GreenStream line of flexible packaging options designed for sustainability utilizes post-consumer recycled content, recyclable materials, compostable materials, downgauged materials, and/or materials derived from renewable resources.

Store-drop off recyclable flexible packaging

recyclable flexible packagingProducts that cannot be included in curbside recycling such as plastic bags, wraps, and packaging film can go to local retail stores where they collect plastic grocery bags for recycling, hence the term known a store-drop off recycling.

We offer recyclable packaging film made from mono-material, 100% polyethylene (PE) that can be recycled at more than 18,000 store drop-off locations across the U.S.

Without compromising durability or resealability, our recycle-ready flexible packaging products reduce environmental impact—while maximizing shelf impact with C-P Flexible Packaging’s best-in-class HD flexographic printing:

  • Premade bags & pouches
  • HFFS/VFFS rollstock
  • Inno-Lok® pre-zippered rollstock
  • Shrink sleeve labels
  • C-FiT™ stretch sleeve labels
  • Cold-seal packaging
  • Pillow bags
  • Flow wrap

As a member of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC), we use their How2Recycle system for certifying various recyclable packages. If you’d like to display a How2Recycle logo on your product, which provides a visual informing consumers exactly how to recycle your package, we can assist in this process.

Flexible packaging made with PCR

plastic bottles used for wipes packagingPost-consumer recycled (PCR) flexible packaging options are sourced from raw materials that include recycled plastic (milk jugs, water bottles, etc.) or paper from industrial or post-consumer sources. Plastic/paper waste collected from recycling centers is sorted, sterilized, and repurposed into new packaging options including post-consumer recycled resin.

  • Can apply to polypropylene, polyethylene and polyester structures
  • FDA-compliance is now offering more options in the food space
  • Matches the quality of non-recycled flexible packaging
  • Offers the same level of protection, barrier performance, and strength as nonrecycled plastic films
  • Allows brands to fulfill sustainability goals without relying on the consumer to recycle or compost package after use

Compostable flexible packaging

compostable-packaging-for-wipesHaving produced more compostable packaging SKU’s than any other packaging supplier in North America, we offer compostable packaging options including:

  • Compostable lidding
  • Compostable overwraps
  • Compostable pouches

Made from plant materials, compostable packaging breaks down into non-toxic components. The non-toxic residue can be cycled back into the soil to safely support plant life.

Our multiple compostable structures provide varying properties for barrier, performance, and clarity depending on product shelf life and packaging equipment requirements ideal for several markets such as:

  • Coffee
  • Snacks
  • Soaps/detergents
  • Ice cream
  • Pet treats
  • Dietary supplements
  • Wipes

Leading BPI-certified Compostable Packaging Supplier

C-P Flexible Packaging offers BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) certified compostable structures meet specifications for ASTM D6400 ensuring that when mixed with food scraps and yard trimmings, the packaging will break down during the regular composting process within 90 to 180 days of disposal, leaving nothing behind.

We’re the first and only company to offer BPI-certifed compostable coffee pod lidding film designed for the newest generation of single-serve coffee makers.

Flat-bottom pouches

Flat bottom pouch

 

BOX POUCHES®

BOX POUCHES®* are a unique type of premade pouch with five panels of printable area for on-shelf brand building. The way a BOX POUCH® displays a product projects an image of high quality. And the unique design of the BOX POUCH® provides superior stability, seal strength, and hermeticity compared to other types of flat-bottom pouches.

Several configurations and sizes of BOX POUCHES® are available, including large-capacity sizes. BOX POUCHES® can be further customized with various features:

  • Clear side gussets
  • Terminated side gussets
  • Handles
  • Laser scoring
  • Sliders
  • Hooded sliders
  • Press-to-close zippers
  • Hook-and-loop closures
  • Matte/gloss printing
  • Recyclable or post-consumer recycled materials

BOX POUCHES® are engineered to use shelf space efficiently, and they require less packaging material than other stand-up pouches that hold an equivalent volume of product.

Quad-seal pouches

Quad-seal pouches consist of two vertical panels and two gussets joined together with four vertical seals. They are commonly found holding products such as:

  • Pet food
  • Coffee
  • Candies
  • Snacks

A primary difference between a quad-seal pouch and a BOX POUCH® is that the bottom of a quad-seal pouch is created with a “fold-over seal,” which means the bottom isn’t perfectly flat. When a quad seal pouch is filled with product, stability isn’t an issue. But as the product is consumed, the bottom of the pouch becomes less stable. For heavier products, such as pet food, quad-seal pouches are often designed to lay flat to ensure stability.

Many of the same features used to customize BOX POUCHES® can also be used to customize quad-seal pouches. But the gussets of a quad-seal pouch are always made from the same material as the rest of the pouch, whereas BOX POUCHES® use two different webs of material — one web for the front, bottom, and back panel, and one web for the side gussets. Brands often take advantage of the ability to make the side gussets clear (providing windows/visibility to the product) while choosing a metallic or opaque material for the rest of the BOX POUCH®.

Metallised film

 

Metallised film

From jhasolutions
Jump to navigationJump to search

Metallised films (or metalized films) are polymer films coated with a thin layer of metal, usually aluminum. They offer the glossy metallic appearance of an aluminium foil at a reduced weight and cost. Metallised films are widely used for decorative purposes and food packaging, and also for specialty applications including insulation and electronics.




Manufacture

Metallisation is performed using a physical vapour deposition process. Aluminium is the most common metal used for deposition, but other metals such as nickel and chromium are also used. The metal is heated and evaporated under vacuum. This condenses on the cold polymer film, which is unwound near the metal vapour source. This coating is much thinner than a metal foil could be made, in the range of 0.5 micrometres. This coating will not fade or discolour over time. While oriented polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are the most common films used for metallisation, nylon, polyethylene and cast polypropylene are also used.

Properties

Metallised films have a reflective silvery surface similar to aluminium foil and are highly flammable. The coating also reduces the permeability of the film to light, water and oxygen. The properties of the film remain, such as higher toughness, the ability to be heat sealed, and a lower density at a lower cost than an aluminium foil. This gives metallised films some advantages over aluminium foil and aluminium foil laminates. It was thought that metallised films would become a replacement for aluminium foil laminates, but current films still cannot match the barrier properties of foil. Some very high barrier metallised films are available using EVOH, but are not yet cost effective against foil laminates.

Uses

Decoration

Metallised films used for balloons

Metallised films were first used for decorative purposes as Christmas tinsel,and continue to be used for items such as wrappers and ribbons. Metallic helium-filled novelty balloons given as gifts are made of metallised BoPET and often called Mylar balloons commercially.

Packaging

Both metallised PET and PP have replaced foil laminates for products such as snack foods, coffee and candy, which do not require the superior barrier of aluminium foil. Metallised nylon and polyethylene are used in the meat export market. The controlled permeation extends shelf life.

Metallised films are used as a susceptor for cooking in microwave ovens. An example is a microwave popcorn bag.

Many food items are also packaged using metallised films for appearance only, as these produce a package with greater sparkle when compared to competing products that use printed paper or polymer films.

Insulation

Metallised PET films are used in NASA spacesuits to reflect heat radiation, keeping astronauts warm, and in ″proximity suits″ used by firefighters for protection from the high amount of heat released from fuel fires. Aluminized emergency blankets ("space blankets") are also used to conserve a shock victim's body heat. MPET has been used as an antistatic container for other heat and sound insulating materials used in aircraft, to prevent the insulation from leaking into the passenger cabin, but is not itself the insulator in that use. Burning MPET insulation was identified as a cause of the crash of Swissair Flight  in 1998 that killed 229 people, leading to new recommendations on its use in airliners.

Electronics

Metallised films are used as a dielectric in the manufacture of a type of capacitor used in electronic circuits, and as a material in some types of antistatic bags.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai . He gave a speech in only 60 seconds

 


Google CEO Sundar Pichai
(He gave a speech in only 60 seconds) He said:

Imagine life is a game of 5 balls that you manipulate in the air trying not to fall these balls. One of them is rubber, and the rest is glass.

The five balls are:
Work, family, health, friends, soul.

It will not be long before you realize that (work) is a rubber ball. Whenever you fall, you will jump again, while the other balls are made of glass. If one of them falls, it will not return to its previous form.

It will either be damaged, bruised, cracked or even scattered.

You have to be aware of that and strive for it.

Manage your work efficiently during working hours, take the time to be assured of your sincerity, give the necessary time to your family and friends, take appropriate rest, and take care of your health. If you are gone, it isn't easy to return as it was.
