Polyplastics' Topas COC Earns APR Recognition for Recyclability with PE Films

The Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR), Farmington Hills, Mich., has granted Critical Guidance Recognition to Polyplastics USA for flexible multilayered film for stand-up pouches with 15.5% or less Topas cyclic olefin copolymer (COC), including grades Topas 9506F-500, 8007F-600, 7010F-600 and 6013F-04. The APR recognition demonstrates that Polyplastics' Topas COC is compatible with PE film recycling streams.

The APR recognition is based on the technical recyclability of multi-layered film including COC content with PE films. The film meets or exceeds APR's FPE-CG-01, Critical Guidance Protocol for PE Film and Flexible Packaging, Path 1.
