\"EcoEco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup><\/a>, the world\u2019s first compostable industrial strength machine grade stretch film, is here! The latest formula uses a certified compostable resin plus a tackifier additive to make an industrial strength compostable stretch wrap that can be used on most standard automated stretch wrap equipment. This is a breakthrough for the industrial packaging and warehousing industries which rely heavily on automated stretch wrapping to prepare pallets of goods for storage, inventory, or shipment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> users can benefit from material\/waste reduction in the following ways. First, most applications requiring three wraps of standard film can use two wraps of Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> without sacrificing strength or protection. Second, Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> is commercially compostable* according to ASTM D6400. Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> may allow its users to avoid tariffs, fines, and tip fees in areas where polyethylene is prohibited or restricted. Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> is shelf and curb stable and will retain its integrity until disposed of properly.<\/p>\n

There are many exciting ways to make use of Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> as a \u201cgreener\u201d packaging option. Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> can be used anywhere a conventional stretch film is needed. Applications include but are not limited to the following:<\/p>\n

\"Eco\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Agriculture bundling (e.g., hay bales and lumber)<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Corralling of goods for storage and shipment<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Pallet wrapping<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Luggage wrapping at airports<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Packaging construction materials<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Transporting furniture<\/p>\n

Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> works on most existing automated machines and is easily applied by adjusting the tension (typically increasing since Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> is extremely elastic). By opting for Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup>, users can improve their environmental image while getting the necessary packaging job done.<\/p>\n

Cortec\u00ae<\/sup> is known for aggressively pursuing R&D toward \u201cgreener\u201d packaging materials. With the development of Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup>, Cortec\u00ae<\/sup> has made an important step toward making commercially compostable packaging more versatile and widely available around the world. The new Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> formulation expands Cortec\u2019s line of existing commercially compostable films and bags and is an exciting breakthrough after many years in development, making commercially compostable machine grade stretch wrap a viable option for use in countless industrial applications. Eco Wrap\u00ae<\/sup> will be extruded at and distributed around the world from Cortec\u2019s film production bases in North America (Cortec\u00ae<\/sup> Advanced Films) and Europe (EcoCortec\u00ae<\/sup>).<\/p>\n
