ST. LOUIS, MO - June 12, 2009 - Spartech Corporation (www.spartech.com), a leader in the development and design of green packaging materials, has answered the demand for an eco-friendly, sustainable replacement for PVC with UltrosRenu™.
“UltrosRenu™ products are a “drop in” PVC replacement solution, produced with the industry’s highest quality recycled PETG materials,” said Jonathan Cage, Director of Packaging Development. “This product performs with excellent trimming qualities and impact properties. And, with no additional tooling or equipment costs, it also delivers a material yield advantage over PVC.”
The UltrosRenu™ product line is designed for blister packaging, clamshells, display boxes and containers in the non-food, consumer, electronics and warehouse club packaging and industrial products markets. It contains pre-consumer content, is RF, bar and tear and heat sealable.
“As the packaging industry is increasingly challenged to produce environmentally friendlier products, Spartech is at the forefront with a wide array of PVC alternatives to meet a broad spectrum of packaging needs. Together, UltrosRenu™ and our EnviroSeal™ line provide a competitively priced, polyester material for every sealing process on the market today.”
The UltrosRenu™ line contains three custom designed products: UltrosRenu™ 90 Clear, UltrosRenu™ 90 Blend and UltrosRenu™ Blue Tint. Spartech also offers the EnviroSeal™ family of products for PVC replacement.
