NOVA Chemicals tested its ASTUTE™ plastomers against other blends and found it achieves higher oxygen transmission rates, clarity, and stiffness in breathable films, resulting in fresher food and reduced waste.
NOVA Chemicals invested in its first mechanical recycling facility in Indiana to increase the supply of high-quality, recycled polyethylene resins. Construction is underway, and operations are expected to begin in early 2025.
The supply agreement would enable Amcor to purchase SYNDIGO™ rPE resin, manufactured at NOVA Chemicals’ first mechanical recycling facility in Connersville, Indiana, which is projected to be in operation as early as 2025.
The Pregis film structure, manufactured with Nova Chemical’s SYNDIGO™ rPE-0860-FC recycled polyethylene resin, delivers on the market need for high-quality, food-safe recycled content solutions without compromising on performance.
Pregis will showcase the stand-up pouches co-developed with NOVA Chemicals at the upcoming Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC) event in Austin, TX from April 24-27.
