LDPE Recyclable Metalized Laminate
Swisspac’s metalised PE laminate can be recycled in drop-off soft plastics collections. It has similar functionality to traditional plastics that are not recyclable and is suitable for use across a number of different industries.

Considerations
The Good?
The Bad?
The Good?
- LDPE is a highly recyclable material and has wide application across numerous packaging formats and industries
- It is highly durable and affordable, and can be used across numerous different packaging formats
- Available in high and low barrier structures
- Considerably better than most non-recyclable multi-material laminates
The Bad?
- Made from virgin petrochemical materials
- More cost-effective than most bioplastic alternatives to flexible packaging
- Soft plastic recycling is challenging. This material either needs to go into a dedicated polyethylene stream (#2 or #4) or a drop-off soft plastics collection stream, which are limited although growing rapidly
- Doesn’t contribute meaningfully in moving towards a circular economy but it’s a starting point
