With the new \u201eeco+35\u201c product series, Mopack GmbH has launched two polyolefin fine shrink films with PCR content and DEKRA-tested food suitability.<\/strong><\/p>\n

High-quality packaging with a recycled content - for a long time, this was considered a contradiction in terms, especially in areas where stable processing, a flawless appearance and certified product safety are required. With MO1eco+35 and MO4eco+35, Mopack has now launched two certified PCR films that fulfil this requirement - and set new standards with their DEKRA-tested food suitability. What Processing, transparency, tear and puncture resistance<\/strong> They are in no way inferior to conventional films made from virgin material - and at the same time offer a documented recycled content.<\/p>\n

A central feature of both PCR foils is their officially confirmed suitability for direct food contact<\/strong>. Since March 2025, both films have been DEKRA-approved, confirming their conformity with all requirements of Regulation (EU) No. 10\/2011. The tests included global migration tests, metal migration, sensory properties, primary aromatic amines and a comprehensive NIAS screening. Catalyst residues and heavy metals were also far below the legal limits.<\/strong><\/p>

MO1eco+35 and MO4eco+35 therefore fulfil meet all the requirements for safe use in the food sector - despite their 35 per cent recycled content.<\/strong> DEKRA approval for chemically recycled PCR films is still a rarity in this area of application - and therefore a strong argument for food and foodstuff manufacturers who value certified product safety.<\/p>\n

Chemically recycled - consistent quality<\/h2>\n

MO1eco+35 and MO4eco+35 exist made from chemically recycled post-consumer recyclate<\/strong>, which is purified and re-polymerised at a molecular level. This process differs fundamentally from mechanical recycling and leads to a particularly high homogeneity of the end material<\/strong>. The result: a PCR film with a clear appearance, neutral odour, consistent machinability and stable results in the shrinking process.<\/p>\n

Ready for the PPWR<\/h2>\n

The forthcoming EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR) will place greater emphasis on recyclability, the documented use of recyclates and traceability along the supply chain. For certain types of packaging In future, minimum proportions of up to 35 per cent PCR<\/strong> is planned - a value that MO1eco+35 and MO4eco+35 already fulfil today.<\/p>\n

MO1eco+35 and MO4eco+35 also fulfil the highest requirements in terms of the origin and quality of the materials used: Both films are certified according to GRS 4.0 (Global Recycled Standard) <\/strong>and also carry the \u201eMade for Recycling\u201c label from Interzero<\/strong>. These certificates prove the tested quality of the PCR material and its transparent traceability within the value chain.<\/p>\n

The recyclates used come exclusively from specialised manufacturers who focussed on chemical recycling on an industrial scale<\/strong> are. This not only ensures consistently high quality, but also stable availability - a decisive factor in the face of growing market pressure and increasing recyclate quotas in the long term.<\/p>\n
