At the end of 2020, Etelser K\u00e4sewerk GmbH therefore decided that its portion packaging should be <strong>a monomaterial solution made of polypropylene (PP)<\/strong> to use. Together with <a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=nyco+flexible+packaging\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Nyco Flexible Packaging<\/a> and W. u. H. Fernholz GmbH &amp; Co.

Among other things, we produce portion packs in the form of 20g to 40g rectangular tubs with a sealing plate for bulk consumers such as the catering trade, canteen kitchens and the hotel industry. Previously, this packaging consisted of a polystyrene cup and an aluminium lid plate, but due to the new requirements regarding the recyclability of food packaging, we decided at the end of 2020 to take a proactive approach and switch to polypropylene (PP) now.\u201c <strong>Jan Br\u00fcns<\/strong>, Managing Director of Etelser K\u00e4sewerk<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_46004\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46004\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-46004 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-1024x790.jpg\" alt=\"PP monomaterial cup\" width=\"1024\" height=\"790\" srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-1024x790.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-1536x1186.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-1320x1019.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil-600x463.jpg 600w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cyclos-PP-Peel-High-Barrier-Foil.jpg 1943w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-46004\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Image: Nyco Flexible Packaging)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nyco Flexible Packaging and W. u.

Polypropylene is flexible and stretchy, which makes processing on the FFS system more difficult. Incorporating a barrier layer that does not impair recyclability but provides optimum protection for the food was a key requirement, particularly in terms of sustainability.\u201c <strong>Kirsten Nitzl<\/strong>, Technical &amp; Application Engineer at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyco.ch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Nyco Flexible Packaging<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Cyclos certificate certifies recyclability<\/h2>\n<p>In the meantime, the entire packaging has been <a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=institut+cyclos-htp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Institute cyclos-HTP GmbH<\/a> and certified a recyclate yield of over 99 per cent. \u201eFor a product with a print motif and barrier content, this is <strong>the highest possible categorisation<\/strong> and therefore an excellent result,\u201c knows <strong>Michael Roth<\/strong>, plant manager at W.u.
