Re-use of packaging
1st September 2024
Penflex aims to be a leading force in sustainable plastic conversion, manufacturing innovative, multi-use household products that minimize environmental impact.
We will achieve this by:
- Prioritizing sustainable packaging: Adopting eco-friendly materials and reducing packaging waste through efficient design and minimizing unnecessary elements.
- Transitioning to renewable energy: Investing in renewable energy sources to power our manufacturing operations, thereby reducing our carbon footprint and dependence on fossil fuels.
- Promoting circular economy: Sourcing recycled plastic from the recycling industry to create high-quality products, contributing to a circular economy and reducing the demand for virgin materials.
- Encouraging product reuse and recycling: Designing products that are durable, long-lasting, and easily recyclable or reusable, promoting a more sustainable consumption pattern.
- Prioritize recyclable and biodegradable materials: Transitioning to the use of more recyclable and biodegradable plastics, thus reducing our reliance on non-renewable resources.
- Continuously innovating: Investing in research and development to explore new sustainable technologies and materials, ensuring we remain at the forefront of sustainable plastic conversion.
Penflex focuses on sustainable plastic conversion, producing innovative household products while minimizing our environmental impact. Our packaging initiatives include:
- All brown outer box cartons are made from 100% recycled material.
- Pallet wrap is made from 50% recycled LLDPE.
- Blister cards have a multi-ply fibre construction, containing between 70% to 90% recovered fibre with only the top printed ply containing virgin fibre.
- Pallets in use are either reusable pallets or recycled pallets.
- All cardboard, plastic, and paper packaging received from our suppliers is carefully sorted and separated. We supply these materials to local recycling facilities, to ensure they are processed responsibly and diverted from landfills.
