Plastics for sustainable designs
Henkel at the K 2019 in Duesseldorf
It’s a home game for Henkel: The triennial plastics and rubber trade fair K 2019 takes place in Düsseldorf – home of the company headquarters – Oct. 16-23. Together with industry partners, Henkel will introduce a new adhesives and coatings range that make a valuable contribution to the recyclability of mono-material laminates.
“Flexible packaging is a structurally highly complex product that requires different material layers to enable it to meet a wide range of property requirements. However, this complexity translates to material inhomogeneity – the main challenge for recycling flexible packaging today,” says Marcin Lapaj, Global Business Development Manager for Circular Economy at Henkel Adhesive Technologies. “That’s why we see a need to go beyond the current functionalities – and create a flexible packaging that also has recyclability ‘built in’.”
