Huhtamaki PBL laminated tubes approved by RecyClass

RecyClass has approved three laminated tubes by Huhtamaki that were developed with its partners Plastuni Lisses, a member of Somater Group (France), and ZALESI (Czech Republic).

The laminated tube technology ‘PBL 220/11 HD’, developed by Huhtamaki Flexible Packaging Europe and its partner Plastuni Lisses, show that it is fully compatible with recycling in a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers stream, the findings of an independent laboratory testing confirm.

The findings of an independent laboratory testing of ‘PBL 240-3-7’ and ‘PBL 300/2-7 F’ laminated tubes technologies developed by Huhtamaki Flexible Packaging Europe and its partner ZALESI, show that they are, respectively, fully compatible and compatible with recycling in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers stream.

The analysis was carried out by the Institut für Kunststofftechnologie und -recycling (IKTR), as per the RecyClass Recyclability Evaluation Protocol for HDPE containers.
