PAC Worldwide Launches 100% Recycled Poly Mailers
Demand for flat poly mailers, widely used by couriers and e-commerce businesses for their protective benefits and user-friendliness, is set to expand significantly with the introduction of PAC Worldwide Corporation’s latest development. This innovative product line features mailers crafted from 100% recycled content, available in both 100% post-consumer resin (PCR) as well as certified by the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) and 100% post-industrial recycled (PIR) materials.
Innovative Features of the New Polyjacket Mailers
At the upcoming PACK EXPO event in Chicago, PAC Worldwide will unveil its new Polyjacket® option. This product is not only fully recyclable but also aligns with the sustainability objectives of leading brands. Certification for these mailers offers stakeholders assurance against concerns regarding corporate greenwashing, thereby reinforcing the brand's commitment to environmental responsibility.
The 100% recyclable Polyjacket maintains the same strength and quality that customers expect from PAC's traditional poly mailers, further enhanced by options for custom printing and a dual peel-n-seal feature.
Expanding the Range of Sustainable Packaging
PAC's initiative to incorporate recycled materials marks a significant addition to its diverse range of sustainable poly products. Their offerings include both a stock Polyjacket program featuring 50% recycled content and the first-of-its-kind 100% recycled mailers. Additionally, products such as the Airjacket® bubble mailer and WicketPAC® wicketed poly mailers are available with 50% recycled content, providing versatile options for environmentally-conscious shippers.
Complementing Paper Mailer Products
The introduction of recycled poly mailers complements PAC's comprehensive line of paper mailer solutions, aimed at providing shippers a complete suite of eco-friendly alternatives. This range comprises Ecojacket® Flex, a patent-pending curbside recyclable padded paper mailer, which has received the "Optimally Recyclable" certification from How2Recycle, marking the highest accolade awarded by the industry group. The recently released Ecojacket® Max, featuring a larger, single-faced gusseted design, showcases PAC’s commitment to expanding sustainable options.
