PPWR Packaging with EVOH Layer — Highest Barrier (RECPACK B+)

Product Description

PPWR packaging with an EVOH layer (RECPACK B+ line) is our most advanced mono-material variant, aligned with Regulation (EU) 2025/40 (PPWR). The added EVOH layer delivers the highest oxygen and water-vapor barrier in the entire line, while retaining full recyclability. Learn more: What is PPWR?

Applications

• Products most sensitive to oxygen and moisture (whole-bean coffee, supplements, spices)
• Products requiring the longest shelf life
• Specialty food products requiring the highest barrier
• PPWR-compliant packaging with no compromise on product protection

Packaging Type

Mono-material PP or PE with an EVOH layer, available in LDPE/EVOH/MDO, OPP/EVOH/OPP and CPP/CPP structures. Minimum order quantity (MOQ): 500 kg. Lead time: 4–6 weeks from design approval. Production compliant with BRC Packaging (grade A) and HACCP certification.

Printing

Flexo HD printing, up to 8 colors.

What RECPACK B+ Replaces

RECPACK B+ replaces classic PET/aluminum/PE structures — the EVOH layer achieves a comparable oxygen and water-vapor barrier without losing the recyclability an aluminum layer would cost you. It’s the solution for manufacturers who previously had to choose between the highest product protection and meeting recycling requirements.

Business Benefits of Switching to Mono-Material

Beyond regulatory compliance (PPWR Article 6: 70% recyclable-design compliance from 2030, large-scale recycling from 2035, 80% compliance for grade A/B from 2040), EVOH-layer PPWR packaging brings real business benefits: simplified recycling with no layer separation needed, higher-quality recycled feedstock, and preparing your brand for the growing requirements retail chains place on suppliers.
