New for 2020 Bell can now supply Retran packaging made from 100% post-consumer waste.
The new material contains 100% recycled polymer which is derived from home waste such as plastic rubbish that has been thrown out, collected, sorted and turned back into material that can be used again. Critical to the product is the source of the waste which is essential to ensure continuity of supply and maintain little or no difference in the colour of the film from batch to batch.
Bell managing director Peter Lennie says: “When we first launched Retran offering a 70% recycled content our key client base was delighted however our ambition has always been to reach the magical 100% figure and this opens up a range of new application areas for our packaging solutions.
‘’This is the most exciting development that Bell have announced in 2019 and we know it will be a huge success throughout Europe. With Government, local authority and consumers demand for improved recyclability, Retran provides a fantastic opportunity and delivers a 100% recyclable finished product.
“The new material is currently on test with some key clients and as soon as we have their feedback, we will roll the material out to the rest of our customer base.”
