Sustainable Efforts For A Better Product

Could your next project benefit from greener packaging? We’re leading the way in sustainable, flexible packages that use less energy for production and minimize environmental impact—both from our facility and from the packages themselves.

Our Goals For Improvement

The Robinette Company strives to be an environmentally responsible manufacturer while also being cost effective in methods to minimize the impact on our world. We feel that everyone, manufacturers and consumers, have a vital role in preserving the health of our planet for all generations. We believe producing ecologically safe products is equally as important as producing quality packaging for our customers, through the use of materials and processes that minimize harmful influence on global ecosystems. We offer commercially proven solutions. We excel at helping our customers find sustainable results through the myriad of paper and film structures we source. We partner to find a cost effective, functional, and aesthetically pleasing solution that will be acceptable to Marketing, Production, and Purchasing departments. Whether the goal is to reduce, recycle, renew, or compost, The Robinette Company will work with your team to develop a commercially sustainable solution.

Post Consumer Recycled (PCR)

The Robinette Company offers several PCR films and papers with recycled content up to 90%. Adding recycled content promotes a circular economy and is an FDA compliant option. By adding PCR, companies lower their carbon footprint while keeping their packaging aesthetically intact.

Recyclable

We offer many versions of PCR structures including matte and gloss PET/PE, barrier and non- barrier versions, in roll stock or pre-made pouches. We also offer PCR paper to further lower a already low carbon footprint and recyclable product.
The Robinette Company has several options for recyclable packaging. From surface printed single ply films to laminated high barrier structures that qualify for the How2Recycle in store drop off.

By finding out what’s important to our customers, we can offer a recyclable package that is tailor made for them. We currently offer Paper, HDPE, High Clarity HDPE, Matte HDPE, High Barrier HDPE, LLDPE, and OPP, as a few of our recyclable options.

Compostable

When an SOS paper bag won’t suffice, we offer industrial compostable Paper/bio film and bio film/bio film based alternatives. These structures meet the ASTM 6400* standards and can be incorporated into surface or reverse printed rollstock or pouches.
*Compostability testing must be completed on final package to be considered ASTM D6400 compliant.
