14. Design Challenge
APR and Sleeve Labels
Challenge to Recycling Industry:
• Base material must be identifiable
• Labels cannot sink with PET
• Label cannot bleed in water
• APR pro-actively bringing groups together to seek
solutions-equipment suppliers, resin companies, brand
owners, etc.
15. Sleeve Labeled Bottles
• What color is the bottle plastic?
• You have 1 second
• If you cannot tell, the sorting machines cannot
identify the plastic either!
16. Design for Recycling
• Closure plastic floats in water, PET sinks
• Label designed to float, label ink is laminated and
will not contaminate wash water
• Label exposes PET bottle for NIR and color
sortation
• Adhesive stays on label or washes off PET and is
dispersed in wash water
17. Wrap-up
• Innovation strengthens our industry.
• Good recycle performance benefits all stake
holders.
