Gluecom and Techlan team up to produce e-commerce packaging liner made from recycled materials
In the realm of sustainable packaging, several companies are making significant strides to reduce waste and promote eco-friendliness. Let's delve into the initiatives of Techlan, Gluecom, Siegwerk, and Ravenwood Packaging.
Techlan, a network based in Northwest Westphalia and the eastern Netherlands, is connecting companies, research institutions, and regional actors to drive innovation in key technologies such as battery research, hydrogen, digital data exchange, circular economy, robotics, and health technology. Techlan is particularly focusing on the circular economy, recycling used release liners from aerospace, automotive, and composite manufacturing, previously destined for the trash. Their cleaning process produces Re-Liner, a 100% recycled release liner that performs as well as new material, with shorter delivery times and 67% less carbon emissions.
Customers using Techlan's recycled release liners receive monthly reports showing their carbon reduction. This partnership aims to reduce material waste, transportation costs, and improve sustainability by minimizing landfill waste.
Gluecom offers various adhesives for different substrates and applications, working with Techlan to ensure compatibility. Their adhesives could potentially be used in conjunction with Techlan's Re-Liner, further enhancing the sustainability of packaging solutions.
Siegwerk and Ravenwood Packaging, meanwhile, have formed a strategic partnership to accelerate the adoption of sustainable linerless label solutions. This collaboration offers benefits such as increased label yield per roll, reduced storage and transportation costs, and improved sustainability. The linerless label solution provided by Siegwerk and Ravenwood Packaging is a significant step towards more sustainable packaging practices.
Last year, Mondi switched more than 95% of its release liners and extrusion solutions to PEFC and FSC certified base paper sources, demonstrating a commitment to sustainable practices.
As the world moves towards more sustainable packaging solutions, it's essential to stay informed about global packaging sustainability regulations. A guide provides everything needed to know about global packaging sustainability regulation in 2025, while another resource covers the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation in 2025 in detail.
Moreover, information is available on how top brands are progressing on packaging sustainability, offering insights into best practices and innovative solutions. There's also a key to increasing the use of reusable packaging in supermarkets, a crucial step towards reducing waste and promoting sustainability in everyday life.
In conclusion, the packaging industry is making significant strides towards sustainability, with companies like Techlan, Gluecom, Siegwerk, and Ravenwood Packaging leading the way. As consumers and businesses alike demand more eco-friendly solutions, it's exciting to see the creative and innovative ways these companies are addressing the challenges of sustainable packaging.
