Segers & Balcaen opts for a circular approach: possibility of 100% recyclate

Eco shrink wrap

This versatile LDPE film is available in various thicknesses (30µ to 80µ) and widths, with options for up to 100% recycled content. It features a broad welding range, ensuring efficient high-speed processing on filling lines. Additional features include inside flexo printing up to 8 colors, anti-stick properties for multi-packs, and optimal color coverage.

To understand the strength and ecological impact of plastics, we must recognize our throwaway society. Investing in plastic reuse research is a step towards a sustainable economy,

Addressing global waste

Annually, 5 to 13 million tonnes of plastic end up in the oceans, contributing to significant environmental pollution. This issue underscores the importance of using recycled plastics to curb CO2 emissions. At Segers & Balcaen, we leverage our expertise to produce shrink wrap film from up to 100% regranulate, utilizing post-industrial and post-consumer materials.

Challenges and solutions

While using recycled materials poses challenges such as contamination, odor, and impact on transparency and mechanical properties, our advanced techniques and rigorous quality control ensure reliable and high-quality shrink wrap films. Our recent investment in a 5-layer extrusion machine and a lab extruder highlights our commitment to maintaining high standards.

Commitment to sustainability

Segers & Balcaen actively collaborates with the Flemish Government on circular economy projects, including recycling and bio-compostable granulate initiatives. With over five years of experience in producing regranulated film for industrial applications, we continue to innovate and refine our processes.

Despite recycled plastics currently accounting for only 6% of Europe’s plastics demand, Segers & Balcaen is dedicated to advancing the circular economy through our specialized sustainable shrink wrap film. We invite you to challenge us with your packaging needs and join us in ensuring a greener future.
