Vita Nova

An Initiative for promoting mono PET flexible packaging for a circular economy

Polyplex, a founding member of BOPET Films Europe welcomes this great BOPET Films Europe initiative - VITA NOVA which greatly helps in addressing one of the today’s biggest sustainability challenge of the flexible packaging.
Mono PET packaging is a definite path for achieving the true circularity - thanks to commercially available mechanical and chemical recycling technologies.
With food contact approved recycled content , Mono PET packaging solutions open up new packaging solutions for food contact applications and also generate viable new end lives.
This initiative helps in big way to meet the global sustainability commitments of flexible packaging stake holders.
If you want to support VITA NOVA initiative, please contact Rosemarie Wuite: rosemarie@seariousbusiness.com
