CCL\u2019s focus will be on innovations that can increase recycling rates, enable reusable systems, reduce CO\u2082 emissions \u2013 and at the same time help brands stand out on the shelf. Read more about the innovations on display below:<\/p>\n<h4>EcoShear\u00ae \u2013 Simplifying Glass Recycling<\/h4>\n<p>With EcoShear\u00ae, CCL introduces a revolutionary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.packagingstrategies.com\/topics\/2672-adhesives-sealants\" id=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">adhesive<\/a> technology developed specifically for single-use glass bottles. Traditional labels can impair the quality of recycled glass or adhere so strongly to glass shards that they are rejected during the sorting and recycling process \u2013 EcoShear\u00ae, however, enables nearly residue-free removal during recycling. This reduces glass waste to just 1.5 kg per ton and significantly increases the yield of high-quality recycled glass.<\/p>\n<h4>EcoFloat\u00ae WHITE \u2013 From White HDPE or PET to Clear PET<\/h4>\n<p>The new generation of floatable polyolefin sleeves enables a switch to clear PET for improved recycling compared to white HDPE for products such as yogurt, protein drinks, probiotic beverages, or other light-sensitive contents. The light protection barrier is moved from the bottle to the sleeve, and carbon-free inks optimize the PET recycling process. The bottles retain their familiar white appearance while complying with \u201cDesign-for-Recycling\u201d standards.<\/p>\n<h4>Low Temperature WashOff \u2013 Efficiency for Reusable PET Bottles<\/h4>\n<p>With Low Temp WashOff, CCL brings its proven WashOff technology \u2013 already used for reusable glass \u2013 to the reusable PET bottle (refPET) market. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.packagingstrategies.com\/topics\/2676-labels\" id=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">labels<\/a> detach cleanly at washing temperatures starting from 58\u00b0C and shrink to support the removal process \u2013 offering enhanced efficiency on filling lines and an attractive product look.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4>EcoSource\u00ae BIO<\/h4>\n<p>Labels made from plant-based materials, available with ISCC-certified mass balance or direct sourcing. The result: reduced CO\u2082 footprint without compromising performance or recyclability.<\/p>\n<h4>EcoSource\u00ae PCR<\/h4>\n<p>Labels containing \u226530% recycled content, made from post-consumer materials (e.g. Yellow Bag waste). Available as permanent or WashOff versions \u2013 ideal for brands committed to true circularity.<\/p>\n<h4>Mono-Material Pouches \u2013 100% Recyclable<\/h4>\n<p>With its mono-material <a href=\"https:\/\/www.packagingstrategies.com\/keywords\/3503-pouches\" id=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pouches<\/a> made from PE or PP, CCL presents a future-ready solution for flexible packaging that helps brands comply with PPWR. Unlike traditional pouches made from multiple laminated plastic layers, these are composed of a single material type, such as pure polypropylene.<\/p>\n<p>Mono-material structures enable a clean material stream that is more easily integrated into existing recycling processes \u2013 a key requirement for functional circular economy models. They also have a significantly lower CO\u2082 footprint compared to multi-material packaging.<\/p>\n<h4>Reuse Systems with RFID &amp; eAgile IT \u2013 Smart Reusable Loops<\/h4>\n<p>CCL will also showcase complete solutions for reusable packaging systems at Drinktec. Labels with integrated RFID technology can be applied to each individual reusable container, enabling seamless digital tracking throughout the entire supply chain. The eAgile platform links each packaging unit with a unique digital identity \u2013 allowing cycles, locations, and conditions to be recorded and managed in real time. This makes reuse not only more sustainable but also economically efficient and transparently scalable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.packagingstrategies.com\/articles\/105763-ccl-label-to-showcase-latest-innovations-at-drinktec\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CCL Label is set to showcase their latest label and packaging solutions when the international beverage industry gathers at Drinktec, taking place from September 15-19, 2025, in Munich.
