Helping build a better world through sustainable packaging
Today. Tomorrow. Together.

Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond reporting or sharing knowledge – it's also our business. Our recyclable and renewable packaging is selected to address and minimize its impact on the environment.

Our focus:

• Monomaterial packaging
  At first glance, the method is surprisingly simple. Choosing only one type of material enables selective sorting and optimal recycling. It sounds good and can certainly be implemented with flexible packaging.
  Last but not least, the priority list goes to the need for environmentally compatible recycling. Without optimized sorting, all the effort invested in the last recycling step in the entire chain is lost. This is where flexible monomaterial packaging comes into play: it represents a big step towards a sustainable circular flow economy
• Downgauging packaging
  Downgauging packaging means reducing the thickness of the plastic film to reduce the weight of packaging used, establishing the minimum operational thickness. The minimum thickness means that the pack still retains its integrity through the packing, storage, transport, store display, carrying home and storage at home. Thanks to new materials, we reduce the thickness of the foils to achieve comparable or better properties.

• From renewable packaging
  At ALEDETO, we offer the technical assistance needed to develop packaging from renewable sources. This term means that the raw materials (in whole or in part) used to create the packaging come from a natural and/or renewable source, such as wood pulp.
  
• Foil made from raw material obtained from recyclable waste, the so-called PCR (post-consumer recycled content)
  The latest development in sustainable flexible packaging is the use of PCR content in polyethylene and/or polyester components material structures. 

Ecological disposal of production waste

As part of our production, we have introduced mechanisms, the purpose of which is the thorough separation of different types of films, which we then dispose of in an ecological way. Thanks to this effort, we will help reduce the impact on the environment, because even the several tons of packaging film saved in this way will find their so-called "second life". 

Last but not least, we also try to take steps and investments in the area of smart use of energy resources and social aspects of sustainability.

For us, sustainability means considering our impact – positive and negative – across the value chain in terms of the environment, social responsibility and business and management ethics, and proactively working to lead by example in all three pillars of sustainability. minimizing the negative impacts of our operations and products on the environment while maximizing the positive impacts on our partners, consumers and society.
