CCL Label | Interpack 2023
Padiglione 8a/B30 | Sustainable & Digital Label Solutions
One of the center pieces of the CCL exhibition will be the “Sustainable Label Family” that shows labels and sleeves that were developed for better recycling of the primary packaging such as PET bottles, returnable glass bottles and other packaging types like HDPE and PP containers. The labels have special built-in features that support in the sorting and recycling stages by easily detaching, floating or shrinking.
Many of the solutions of the sustainable label family, such as the low-density polyolefin shrink sleeve EcoFloat®, the Pressure-Sensitive Label for returnable glass bottles, WashOff, and EcoStream® that was developed for PET bottle recycling, have been endorsed by the European PET Bottle Platform (EPBP) and follow the recommendations of the RecyClass.
CCL Label will also shine a spotlight on their stretch sleeve solutions. As a premiere, CCL will present the thinnest stretch sleeve in the market that is available at the moment – the EcoStretch sleeve has a thickness of 30 micron. It was especially designed for returnable 1 Liter PET bottles that are typically used in the German mineral water market.
This decoration technology has a very small carbon footprint to start with, because the material is very thin and can be applied to the container without using any heat or energy – the sleeve attaches to the container with its own elasticity.
