Mono-material films for high-speed machine processing.
All our conventional film range can be manufactured from recyclable materials made of a single polymer (PE or PP), aligning with UK waste streams and conveniently recycled at stores with carrier bags, as categorised by OPRL.

Maintaining the same quality standards as conventional films, our eco-friendly alternatives replace non-recyclable multipolymer structures, offering cost-neutrality and seamless integration into existing machinery.
Our fully recyclable range is crafted from single-layer structures such as mono-PE and mono-PP, specifically engineered for compatibility with UK kerbside collection systems. These materials can be efficiently reprocessed into raw materials or converted into engineered fuel, actively supporting the circular economy and contributing to the reduction of overall carbon footprint.
Their easy to fill design makes them a versatile packaging solution and a popular choice for a wide range of goods. Here are some of the key advantages:

We’ve answered the most common technical and practical questions about our recyclable film range.
A recyclable film is typically made from a single type of polymer — such as LDPE (class 4) or PP (class 5) — that can be collected, sorted, and reprocessed through standard recycling streams.
Mono-material films are made from a single type of plastic, which improves recyclability. Multi-layer films, while offering stronger barriers, are often not recyclable due to mixed materials. Check our blog post here for more details.
Yes. We supply recyclable films under LDPE-4 and PP-5, both of which are accepted in many local recycling systems, especially for flexible packaging.
Yes. Our recyclable films use EVOH and special coatings to maintain oxygen, moisture, and aroma barriers — ideal for snacks, cereals, and dry goods.
Absolutely. Our recyclable films are engineered for high-speed FFS applications and compatible with horizontal and vertical form-fill-seal machinery.
Yes. We offer high-quality digital printing on recyclable films without compromising recyclability. Variable data printing is also available for batch codes and product versions.
We can print appropriate recycling logos (such as LDPE-4 or PP-5) and disposal instructions directly on the packaging to guide responsible disposal.
Yes. Our recyclable films are used across various formats — including stand-up pouches, sachets, and peelable lidding films — with custom finishes and seal strengths.
