Compostable packaging
In addition to our plant-based compostable bottles, we can offer compostable packaging and also supply the necessary other equipment to become fossil plastic-free. This allows the foils to be included in the same end-of-life solution as the bottles.
And reduces the waste flow of fossil plastics within your company and you are more environmentally aware in your business operations.
Plant-based wrapping foil
Filling a plant-based bottle with water, milk or juice is a very good idea. Only where do you pack the bottle if it has to be filled and prepared for transport?
Is there still a fossil plastic wrapping around it? And does the pallet then have to be wrapped with fossil plastic stretch foil?
Fortunately, that is not necessary. There are possibilities to use plant-based compostable wrapping films. We have selected a few producers who produce a completely 100% plant-based plastic film. They have developed a film for us that is ideal for packaging the 24 packs with water bottles. They have also developed a special foil for us for wrapping a pallet.
We also offer these solutions to all our co-packers of the water bottles, but also to the companies that purchase our preforms for milk and juice.
In addition to our plant-based compostable bottles, we can offer a total packaged and also supply the necessary foils. This also allows the foils to be included in the same end of life solution as the bottles.
This reduces the waste flow of fossil plastics within your company and you are more environmentally aware in your business operations. If you are interested in using these compostable plant-based wrapping films in addition to our bottles, please contact us. Preferably with the technical details of your current wrapping films.

Together with you, as a client, we can look at the best end-of-life solution for your project. Taking into account the manufacturing process, the consumer, and the regulation within the countries the products are sold.

The Story To Tell
And why do we do all the efforts of hanging to plant-based material?
Is it because; we can lower our CO2 emission, want to use renewable resources, use more renewable energy, lower the water use of our packaging,
lower the energy use of our packaging and product? apply within the EU regulations?
stop using fossil plastic in every corner of the company.
Whatever your reasons are. The story you tell to your suppliers, consumers, employees and everybody connected to your company needs to be correct.
We can support you with the data and if your marketing department need help, we can find a good support system for them as well.
