EPS from up to 100% Recycled Material

Metzingen, December 2019. With rEPS, the Metzingen-based protective packaging specialist is breaking new ground when it comes to fully closing the recycling loop for EPS protective packaging. The raw material rEPS comprises of 100% recycled EPS or PS from post-consumer goods – and the protective packaging can also be made with up to 100% of this raw material. The ratio to conventional EPS (i.e. the share of recycled material) can be tailored to reflect customer requirements in terms of cost and properties. As such, rEPS represents an exceptionally attractive solution for companies that wish to ship their goods safely while taking sustainability seriously. As part of a customer project, which is due to get underway in the first quarter of 2020, Storopack will be launching the first-ever protective packaging made from 100% rEPS.
