Shrink-sleeve film allows for full PET recovery

Sleever International’s LDPET, low-density PET, shrink-sleeve film was designed with beverage brand owners in mind to help them meet PET bottle recycling objectives. LDPET allows recycling facilities to separate the sleeves from the bottles without any manual operation. In addition, the printed film uses inks specifically designed to withstand the materials segregation treatment with no risk of contamination of the PET flakes.
