UPM Raflatac receives APR Design for Recyclability recognitions for three types of label solutions
UPM Raflatac, a global supplier of self-adhesive paper and film products, has been formally recognised by the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) for three types of biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) label products for HDPE and PP package recycling. These include Undecorated BOPP with hotmelt adhesive, Undecorated BOPP with RW85C, and metalised undecorated BOPP with general purpose acrylic adhesive.
APR Design for Recyclability Recognition provides third-party validation that a package or packaging component’s design is compatible with the North American recycling system. This process has now confirmed that UPM Raflatac’s BOPP products, as stated above, have met the highest criteria for recyclability according to the APR Design Guide. UPM Raflatac’s latest recognitions are all for HDPE and PP recycling.
