Case study: Reimagining cheese packaging through collaboration: designed-to-be-recyclable*, mono-material HFFS pouch with a 60% material reduction**
Hosokawa Alpine, Kuraray, IMA Ilapak and ExxonMobil Signature Polymers created a cheese packaging solution that is designed for recyclability* and uses significantly less packaging material compared to traditional rigid thermoformed tray solutions. * Designed with features intended to support recyclability. Actual recyclability depends on factors such as local collection, sortation, and recycling infrastructure, as well as the condition and configuration of the package after use. However, access to facilities that accept, and process plastic film is limited and not widely available. ** as compared to conventional thermoformed tray packages
