Material Converting

The site adds more than 40 million pounds of annual extrusion capacity and is designed to run a significant portion of the Clean Wash Flake (CWF) produced through D6’s Omni Recycling Center in Longview, Texas.

While we have already named our Top 25 Converters for 2025, here are some flexible packaging converters who are strong contenders for next year’s list.

Investment in flexible packaging technologies increases capacity for recycle-ready, high-barrier solutions across dry goods, pet food, confections, and specialty markets.

Development can help Japanese manufacturers remove plastic linings in paper and board packaging.

Over the next 18 months, Packamama will validate its bottle innovations through material trials, recyclability testing, and consumer research.

Solution is made possible using a bag made of SIG Terra RecShield, a mono-material film with a newly formulated polymer structure that replaces the conventional multi-layer structure typically used in bag-in-box packaging.

Unlike traditional reverse printed PET/PE laminations, the film is designed to serve as a standalone, non-laminated and surface printed structure, reducing the number of processing steps for packaging converters.

Unlike legacy co-extruded structures, ACG’s DryPod is built using a proprietary lamination-based approach.

C$1.5 million (£814,000) Canada-UK project will harness yeast and bacterial fermentation to produce renewable alternatives to petroleum-based plastics for packaging, personal care, health, and consumer goods.

Eco-efficiency meets market muscle as flexible packaging converters double down on sustainability and consolidation.
