S-OneLP<\/a> has announced its recognition as a 2025 Commercial Success in Degradability Innovation honoree. RadTech, the association for UV and eBeam (EB) Technology, selected S-OneLP\u2019s ReEarth pouch, REE34MSUP, coated with its matte eBeam OPV, KKLP05, for this award. This honor highlights an important pillar of sustainability<\/a>: designing products with their end-of-life (EOL) in mind. The award aims to promote research and development of degradable materials.<\/p>\n When an item is discarded, it often increases non-degradable waste in landfills. Even most \u201crecyclable\u201d plastics have the same result. RadTech reports, \u201cAn estimated 9% of the world\u2019s plastic waste results in being recycled.\u201d Research and development along with packaging technology are paramount in the design of degradable materials to fight pollution.<\/p>\n \u201cS-OneLP is committed to widening sustainable opportunities for converters by providing them with a variety of environmentally friendly product options,\u201d stated Dan Halkyard, Senior Director Product Development, S-OneLP. \u201cOur ReEarth line of prelaminated flexible packaging films<\/a> offer bio-based and compostable solutions. Also, our formulated EB coatings and adhesives when used in recommended coat weights, do no inhibit compostablility.\u201d<\/p>\n ReEarth 3.4 mil Silver Compostable Pouch Web is the film that won the degradability award. REE34MSUP is made in the USA from USDA certified bio-based, compostable materials, and the laminated structure formed into a printed and protected pouch has been certified by TUV for both Commercial and Home compostability. This eco-friendly packaging is designed to have excellent barrier properties, a robust sealant layer for closures, and perfect stiffness for gusseted pouches that stand on their own. S-OneLP\u2019s sustainable product packaging is made from compostable materials that are responsibly sourced. This metallized laminated film structure can be surface printed by either digital or analog technology and is compatible with most pouching equipment<\/a>.<\/p>\n Applications include dry food content pouches or bar wraps. At their end of life, they are home and industrial compostable. The pouch film was surface printed on an HP Indigo press and then coated with S-OneLP\u2019s CatPak\u2122 matte eBeam coating to protect the package surface. The ReEarth printed and e-beamed pouch passed ASTMD6400 and EN13432 testing. Additionally, the film is certified for commercial and home compostability by BPI, TUV, and is Lomi Approved\u2122, the manufacturer of a countertop composting unit. The USDA has also approved the film for its bio-based content.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nKKLP705 Matte eBeam Coating Performance\u00a0<\/h4>\n
