Thank you for Re-using or Recycling our product
Made with true waste. Renew air cushions are produced with minimal 30% recycled plastic waste from consumers like bags and wrappings. The air cushions are 100% recyclable.
Used to protect the content of your package. The air cushions are used to make sure you receive your package damage-free.
Please Recycle me! The air cushion can be disposed of with your plastic waste so it can be reused again.
At Pregis, we believe that circularity is key to building sustainability into every part of the supply chain. We manufacture the highest quality product packaging based on our sustainable product design principles.
We use independent organisations and certification programs to certify our products. These organisations & programs help improve global sustainability by offering guidelines and certifications for companies working towards a greener future.
The post-consumer recycled content in the Renew air cushions is EUcertplast certified (European Certification of Plastics Recycling). With the EuCertPlast certification, we give you an assurance that the resins processed in our supplier’s plant are treated according to best practices and with respect towards the environment.
A Life Cycle Analysis study performed by Emitwise has confirmed that the Post Consumer Recycled resin used to produce Renew air cushions has a 93% lower CO2 emission compared to plastic resin produced from oil.
There are many ways how to recycle plastic and reuse it in the production of new products. At Pregis we choose to maximise the content of post-consumer recycled plastic which is true waste. Post-consumer waste has completed its life cycle as a retail or consumer item, like plastic bags, bottles and plastic packaging.
(simplified representation)
Using recycled waste generates less CO2 emission than using virgin resources (plastic produced out of oil). And the use of post-consumer recycled waste generates less CO2 emission than the use of post-industrial recycled waste.
