APC Launches Sustainable Flexible Packaging Technology Flexible packaging producer American Packaging Cor- poration (APC), Columbus, Wisconsin, has commercially launched another RE Design for Recycle flexible packag- ing technology targeted at frozen food products such as frozen fruits and vegetables. This new technology joins a portfolio of packaging technologies in APC’s RE sustain- able packaging portfolio, that also includes Design for Compost, Circular Content, and Renewable Content, as well as several Design for Recycle options. This result was an all-polyethylene (PE), Design for Re- cycle flexible package. The laminate was designed using an oriented print web which offers increased heat resistance, dimensional stabil- ity, and clarity for graphics. The print web is reverse-printed and then adhesively laminated to a sealant film, offering good opacity and low- er temperature sealability. The oriented print web can be printed either using flex- ographic or rotogravure printing and allows for patterned or full matte gloss over-lacquer.
