WE RECYLE THE SILICON-TREATED SUPPORT FOR OUR SELF-STICKING LABELS

The adhesive labels applied on products are generally mainly produced using silicon-treated paper called liner. This line is applied underneath the printed label for the protection and portability of the labels.

After it has served its purpose the support can be reused as raw material for new processes and products. Currently, in the world, only a small portion of the used support is collected to be reused or recycled.

Citres has implemented systems of recovery and recycling of the liners to give new life to these materials; with careful collection and management in the packing department, these raw materials can be reused for different types of applications.

What is normally processing waste will become recycled paper and silicone, used in the construction business for external insulation and for a variety of other industrial applications.

This important process carried out in the Citres plant is a precious contribution that everyone should commit to in order to significantly reduce their environmental impacts. It is important to include even minor details in the recycle circuit, and to dispose of waste sustainably.
