Assess the performance of your packaging against recyclability criteria
What Is It?
RecycleMe supports you in the technical validation of the recyclability of your packaging through a range of tests conducted under real laboratory conditions. These tests validate recyclability parameters and the total quantity of material that will be effectively recovered. Examples of tests we carry out include:
- Repulping (paper/board): validation of the quantity of fibres recovered, colours and quantities of macro-stickies (disruptors).
- Label washing: ability of adhesives to be removed without affecting the PET or PP recycling stream.
- Ink deinking: verification of ink separation during the recycling of graphic papers (deinking stage).
Who Is It For?

- Relevant functions: Quality Managers, R&D
