At Chinaplas 2025, the Reifenhäuser Group unveils its latest innovations for the efficient and sustainable production of plastic films. From 15 to 18 April, at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center (Stand 10G21), the German extrusion specialist presents cutting-edge solutions that support the packaging industry’s transition towards circularity and climate responsibility.

JFE (Jindal Films Europe) is investing in R&D and advanced production capabilities to create sustainable and recyclable films that meet the evolving needs of the market while reducing environmental impact. In this regard, Manfred Kaufmann, CEO of JFE, stated:

Ticinoplast distinguishes itself in the sustainable packaging industry thanks to its skills and commitment in developing sustainable solutions in response to the growing need for recyclable packaging, in line with the new European regulations (PPWR) which require all packaging to be recyclable by 2030.

On 29th August 2024, the Zentrale Stelle Verpackungsregister (ZSVR) updated the minimum standard for recyclable packaging, incorporating new categories of materials. In addition to the traditional polyethylene (PE) and polyamide (PA) barrier films, films containing ethylene-vinyl-alcohol copolymer (EVOH) are now recognised as recyclable.

The reduction of environmental impact passes through knowledge of the state-of-the-art and of the strategies suitable for obtaining authentic sustainability. Ticinoplast’s films are tangible examples and open up new perspectives.

As part of its Trucircle programme, Sabic has developed recycled plastic packaging that promotes the circular economy.

One of the latest innovations developed by Aptar Closures is Future Disc Top, a fully recyclable polyethylene (PE) closure system which retains its strength throughout the online shopping journey, providing peace of mind for brand owners and consumers.

While for a long time cosmetics packaging struggled to hold together commercial and environmental reasons, today circular economy principles guide much of the innovation in the beauty sector.
