Amcor secures RecyClass certification for pallet protection stretch films

Stretch wrap films securing palletised goods

AMCOR has announced that it has achieved RecyClass Recycled Plastics Traceability Certification (EN15343) for selected specifications of its Bontite Sustane stretch film.

Bontite is a range of blown LLDPE stretch wrap films designed to secure and stabilise palletised goods during transit. The films contain defined levels of post‑consumer recycled (PCR) content and are manufactured at Amcor’s sites in Leominster, UK and Zele, Belgium.

The RecyClass certification verifies that recycled plastics incorporated into finished products are independently audited, fully traceable throughout production and aligned with recognised European standards. This supports customers preparing for UK PPT changes from April 2027, when pre‑consumer recycled content (PIR) will no longer count towards the 30% threshold and only post‑consumer recycled (PCR) content will be accepted.

“Certification strengthens customer confidence that their packaging choices support compliance with evolving regulation,” said Gabriele Ditsch, sales director at Amcor. “Our certified Bontite Sustane stretch films provide independent assurance of recycled content claims and reinforce Amcor’s ability to scale verified PCR solutions across industrial and secondary packaging.”
