PCR Packaging

Post-consumer recycled resin (PCR) is now widely used in packaging to reduce the environmental impact of plastic manufacturing. When it comes to integrating PCR into your packaging, selecting the right type and percentage of recycled resin is key. Partnering with an experienced supplier can help you identify the best PCR solutions without compromising the functional performance of your product.

Uses and Benefits

Integrating PCR into your packaging is a cost-effective way to achieve sustainability goals without compromising on quality. PCR allows manufacturers to make the most of existing resources already in the supply chain and reclaim plastic waste from our oceans. PCR packaging has all the benefits of traditional plastic packaging when manufactured with the appropriate ratio of PCR to virgin resins. At Evergreen, we purchase PCR resin from a qualified list of resin suppliers globally to ensure raw material quality and stability.
