Sustainable Shrink Film Solution for a Large Bottling Company

By switching to Aintree Plastics' EcoExel film, the large bottling company achieved their goals of maintaining high-quality standards, supporting environmental sustainability, and avoiding PPT costs. The ongoing collaboration aims to further enhance the film's PCW content, reinforcing the company’s commitment to eco-friendly practices.

The Problem

A large bottling company required collation shrink film and needed a BRC accredited supplier. With the introduction of the Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT), their current BRC supplier insisted that the film had to be 100% virgin material to ensure proper shrinking, which posed a problem for the company’s sustainability goals.

The Solution

Aintree Plastics proposed our EcoExel shrink film, leveraging their manufacturing consistency and high-quality suppliers of post-consumer waste (PCW). As no direct contact with food, the EcoExel film was compliant, while containing 30% reclaimed material. The film quality met the shrinking requirements and was exempt from the PPT.

We've been working with Aintree for a while now and not once have we had to worry about a late delivery. That kind of reliability is gold in our industry. Our products look fantastic, whilst hitting our sustainability efforts without compromising on performance or quality.
