News was recently released that UPM\u2019s waste management concept is now available industry wide in Europe. Thanks to UPM\u2019s de-siliconizing process it means spent paper release liner can now be saved and changed into useful raw material. RCP (Recovered Paper sourcing) provides the processes for collecting the materials. How green is my labelling business? This now means that Label printers, packers and brand owners can have spent release paper collected for recycling at UPM\u2019s paper mill. (based in Plattling, Germany). And of course as well as this being a great move for green processes it also businesses taking part will be\u00a0 saving on waste disposal costs from landfill or incineration. The Process The new process, UPM Raflatac\u2019s RafCycle\u00ae \u00a0will begin by analysing an individual businesses systems and the packers activities to find the most viable approach for collection and storage. The spent liner is accumulated and stored in big bags at printers\u2019 or packers\u2019 premises, and transported either to local hubs or directly to the UPM Plattling mill. At Plattling, the liner is processed into pulp used as raw material for UPM [&hellip;]","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/www.tantolabels.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/eco.jpg"}
