Irplast S.p.A | Best Packaging 2025

MonoMaterial Lidding

Product overview. The product is designed to replace BOPET in food packaging lids. Irplast offers manufacturers a mono-material, fully recyclable, ISCC-certified film that ensures a hermetic seal and excellent heat resistance. Delivering high performance without requiring changes to existing production processes, it is an effective solution for the transition to circular and sustainable packaging.

Innovation. The final packaging is made entirely of polypropylene, making it fully recyclable. In addition, the use of ISCC PLUS-certified films – sourced from renewable materials or through chemical recycling – reduces reliance on virgin raw materials.

Materials used. The product is made using ISCC-certified bio-based resins. These renewable sources include vegetable oils derived as by-products from other production processes. Chemical recycling involves pyroil, a process based on pyrolysis that makes it possible to produce polymers with properties equivalent to those of virgin plastic.

Applied technologies and benefits. The film is manufactured using LISIM (simultaneous stretching line) technology, which allows for a high level of customisation in both technical properties and thickness. The technology ensures shape retention under existing process conditions, eliminating the need for changes to the machinery in use.

Environmental and consumer benefits. The product features a mono-material structure to improve recyclability in accordance with the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), while the use of ISCC-certified materials significantly reduces the carbon footprint. MonoMaterial Lidding is suitable for use on trays across various sectors, where it is necessary to preserve product characteristics while enhancing shelf appeal through excellent visual impact.

Communication advantages. One of the key objectives is to convey clear and impactful messages to the consumer. Thanks to its large printing surface, the product offers ample space for companies to include promotional content such as slogans, logos and/or interactive elements like QR codes.
