Presentation

PP HB ECOTOP

Our new, flexible, polypropylene top film is a recyclable high-barrier material that can be used with heat treatments such as retort processing. It can replace multimaterial structures to comply with EU guidelines on the circular economy. PP HB ECOTOP is part of SP Group’s ECO range of recyclable monomaterial solutions.

Combined with the new RST B ECO thermoformable base web, our PP HB ECOTOP top film is the perfect solution for vacuum-packed products that require retort processing. The structure is fully recyclable, as more than 90% of it is polypropylene. The remaining materials do not interfere in the recycling process.

The PP HB ECOTOP top film is also compatible with rigid polypropylene thermoformable trays. This makes it an ideal recyclable monomaterial top film for products that require MAP, rather than vacuum packing.
