The technical complexities of developing and manufacturing sustainable high barrier flexible packaging that is recycle-ready, with performances to replace the multi-material non-recyclable packaging, is a major challenge. The BOBST and partners’ oneBARRIER solutions are the outcome of joint process and equipment development and testing, bringing to the market new packaging materials with integrated barrier properties.

oneBARRIER FibreCycle
Existing structures made of full PE high barrier laminate films offer a cost-effective, EVOH-free, and recycle-ready solution. The result is PrimeCycle, a mono-material packaging that is both opaque and clear, topcoat-free, and suitable for metallized PET film replacement. oneBARRIER FibreCycle is a second mono-material packaging solution designed by BOBST and partners and is a paper-based alternative to plastic-based flexible packaging and it is also recyclable.
