Recycled Materials
We transform post-consumer waste into high-quality recycled materials through our closed-loop system. Using advanced processing technology, we produce LDPE, HDPE and PP pellets that maintain virgin polymer properties. This sustainable approach reduces environmental impact while providing cost-effective solutions for manufacturers seeking eco-friendly raw materials.
Green Polyethylene
Our renewable sugarcane-based polyethylene offers a sustainable alternative to conventional plastics. This innovative material reduces greenhouse gas emissions throughout its lifecycle while maintaining full recyclability. We blend Green PE with post-consumer waste to enhance environmental credentials without compromising product performance or quality standards.
Industrial Packaging
We supply durable, customised packaging solutions for industrial applications. Our high-performance products include heavy-duty bags and films manufactured using multi-layer blown film technology. These solutions combine strength and reliability with environmental responsibility, meeting the demanding requirements of manufacturing and logistics sectors across the UK.
Compostable Products
Our EN 13432-certified compostable packaging solutions offer complete lifecycle sustainability. These products break down in industrial composting facilities while maintaining the strength and functionality required for various applications. We provide warm water-soluble films and other innovative solutions that help businesses reduce their environmental footprint without compromising performance.
High-Definition Printing
We offer up to 8-colour flexographic printing on both sides of packaging films.
