Winpak Ltd., a manufacturer and distributor of high-quality packaging materials for perishable foods, beverages and healthcare, announces a long-term agreement with NOVA Circular Solutions LLC, a business unit of NOVA Chemicals, to procure post-consumer recycled polyethylene (rPE) under the brand name SYNDIGO™.
Winpak will utilize NOVA’s rPE to manufacture and distribute high-quality packaging materials for the protection of perishable foods, beverages, and personal care products. Winpak maintains its position as a leading packaging solutions manufacturer with a strategic focus on technological innovation and sustainability.
NOVA is focused on providing high-quality rPE to meet the growing market demand for sustainable packaging and actively investing in mechanical recycling infrastructure in North America. The company’s Connersville, Indiana, recycling facility, scheduled to begin operations in early 2025, will produce more than 110 million pounds of SYNDIGO™ rPE annually. This groundbreaking facility is expected to be one of the largest and most sophisticated plastic film recycling facilities in the world. It will supply post-consumer recycled linear low-density polyethylene (rLLDPE) for a wide range of applications, including flexible food packaging. NOVA Chemicals’ letter of non-objection from the FDA for food contact conditions B-H further underscores the quality and safety of its SYNDIGO™ product line.
