Polyethylene film with recycled food content

Pregis®, US manufacturer of flexible and protective packaging, has teamed up with Nova Chemicals to develop a food-grade recycled-content polyethylene (rPE) film solution that offers clarity, printability and processing performance for food-grade stand-up pouches.

The Pregis film structure, made with Nova Chemicals’s Syndigo™ rPE-0860-FC recycled polyethylene resin, complements the Pregis Performance Flexibles Renew™ series of durable, high-performance films. Pregis has invested over $100 million to establish state-of-the-art blown film extrusion operations.
