Sustainability at UFlex
Sustainability is not just a component but the essence of UFlex’s corporate strategy. Every business decision is meticulously aligned with the company’s sustainability vision and goals. UFlex aspires to achieve net-zero status by 2035, exemplifying its commitment to environmental responsibility since the early 1990s.
- UFlex Group has been a trendsetter when it comes to sustainable innovation and commitment towards the ‘Circular Economy’, via its technologies, diverse product portfolio and processes.
- It is the ‘first company in the world to recycle mixed plastic waste’ for which it earned recognition at the Davos Recycle Forum in 1995, way ahead of other companies from developed economies.
- As an industry leader in building sustainable flexible packaging solutions, UFlex runs a global sustainability initiative called ‘Project Plastic Fix.’ This initiative is aligned with the company’s sustainability approach of 4Rs to tackle the challenge of reducing stock and flow of plastic waste in the environment, i.e.,
Reduce plastic at source by manufacturing and using films made from PCR | Recycle via upcycling and downcycling of MLP (Multi-Layer mixed Plastic) and PET containers, covers, other articles and bottles | Reuse as source substitution via Pyrolysis | Return to the planet in the form of biomass, if the plastic waste remains uncollected. - UFlex has developed an advanced “Enzymatic Delamination Technology” to enable aseptic packaging recycling. Enzymatic delamination uses enzymes to break down the bonding between different layers of the packaging materials, separating individual layers such as paper and polyethylene/foil laminate which is reused in the production of new products and for aseptic packaging – closing the circular loop.
- Creating ‘wealth out of waste’ by recycling post-consumer PET Bottles and Mixed Plastic MLP waste. UFlex commissioned two lines in its Noida, National Capital Region, India, plants in 2020 to recycle Post-consumer PET bottles and mixed plastic waste collected from Delhi-NCR. The Post Consumer Recyclate (PCR line) converts the post-consumer PET bottle waste to resin chips and upcycled it to manufacture UFlex’s range of green packaging film with PCR content called Asclepius™.
- We have implemented several innovative approaches to address the growing demand for water while prioritizing sustainability and fostering harmony with the environment. Recycling of water used in the recycling process of industrial (pre-consumer) waste. This water has contaminants like dirt, oil, washed spices, etc. We use chemical treatment, Ionization techniques, and forced filtration to recycle and recover nearly 95 % of water.
UFlex continues to lead the way in sustainable practices, setting new benchmarks for the industry and reinforcing its commitment to environmental responsibility and innovation.
