Thermoformed Packaging
Materials

Good for the planet. Good for the bottom line.

Thermoformed packaging presents an opportunity to innovate new packaging designs that will pull materials from recycling streams. New high end demand is needed for the economical collection of clean plastic streams. Recovered materials can be cleaned, extruded and thermoformed into new packages.

Light and Strong

The light weight nature of plastic make it an ideal choice for meeting package reduction goals, while the high strength to weight ratio of plastics make reuse feasible.

Promotes Recycling and Reuse

Since most municipal collection systems are built around HDPE and PET, two excellent thermoforming materials, use of these materials makes recycling and the inclusion of recycled materials feasible. Recovered materials can be cleaned, extruded and thermoformed into new packages, not only good for the environment, but good for the bottom line.

Design Flexibility

Combine all this with low tool and engineering costs which makes creative design exploration possible and thermoformed plastic packaging is a good environmental choice!
