economically and ecologically worthwhile: carrier bags from the recycling loop.

ecoLoop bags are packaging made of recycled used film. The carrier bags are produced in a closed material loop. In the process used film waste is recycled to raw material that is then used to produce new carrier bags.

The CO2 emission* is reduced by 60% with every ecoLoop bag when compared to virgin material. ecoLoop products from Papier-Mettler have been awarded the “Blue Angel” environmental label. So you can be sure that ecoLoop bags consist to at least 80% of Post Consumer Recycling (PCR) material. Papier-Mettler recycles more than 35,000 tons of used film a year, which it uses to produce its ecoLoop carrier bags. The opening of the second recycling plant in the year 2012 sees the capacity at the Morbach location once again doubled.

Your carrier bags can still be produced from recycled material even if you do not have sufficient film waste yourself to close the loop. Give it a try!
