Sonoco Adds Recyclable Flexible Packaging to Sustainable Packaging Portfolio

New EnviroFlex PE delivers sustainability attributes, including return-to-store recycling.

Sonoco announced the introduction of EnviroFlex PE recyclable polyethylene flexible packaging. EnviroFlex PE is eligible to use the How2Recycle Store Drop-Off label, which means it can be dropped off (clean and dry) at local retail stores for recycling with grocery bags.

A project of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC), How2Recycle is a standardized la-beling system that clearly communicates recycling instructions to the public in accordance with Federal Trade Commission Green Guides.

Available in a range of barrier options and capable of incorporating zipper closures, Envi-roFlex PE is suitable for a variety of products, including cookies and crackers, confections, dry/dehydrated foods, sweet and savory snacks, pet food and treats, personal care items and more.

“EnviroFlex PE is another step toward meeting the demand for sustainable flexible pack-aging that’s easy to recycle,” said Rodger Fuller, SVP, Global Consumer Packaging, Display & Packaging and Protective Solutions.
