Sustainable labels and tags: CO2 reduction through use of recycled plastic

The solution

In collaboration with us, VanDerEng B.V. has developed an innovative label containing recycled plastic called 'Green Core'. This product is a great example of sustainable business.

The results

The use of Green Core labels has resulted in a carbon footprint reduction of half a kilo per kilo of product. This impressive reduction has been extensively tested and guaranteed by a professional life cycle analysis (LCA) conducted by CE Delft. This study confirms the sustainability claims and ensures that the labels have a lower environmental impact without compromising on quality.

Partners

This project would not have been possible without the will to become sustainable from VanDerEng B.V.'s customers. PLUS Retail has purchased millions of these sustainable labels, demonstrating their commitment to sustainable products. Similarly, Verver Export has used hundreds of thousands of Green Core labels for their flower bulbs, significantly reducing their carbon footprint.

Rating

We are extremely pleased with the trust VanDerEng B.V. has placed in us and for their ongoing commitment to sustainability. This collaboration shows how chain cooperation and innovative solutions can be the way forward in making plastic products more sustainable.
