USFFI is a 501c(6) nonprofit membership organization formed by leading brands and organizations individually dedicated to demonstrating that flexible packaging, including bags, wraps and pouches, can be successfully sorted, processed, and reintroduced into the supply chain when the necessary economic incentives and infrastructure are in place.
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.
Manufactured using CNG’s next-generation MDO platform, the new GreenArrow™ matte MDO-PE print film integrates a premium matte aesthetic directly into the material, eliminating the need for secondary coatings or overprint varnishes.
With applications in cereal bags, shrink film, and household overwrap for items like napkins and paper towels, these rPE-based films offer both performance and environmental benefit—meeting the evolving sustainability goals of brands and retailers.
The new film is road-tested and delivers the same or better performance than traditional film while contributing to the attainability of environmental goals.
CNG has successfully developed high-performing PE film structures that are opaque yet compatible with existing PE recycling streams making more packaging suitable for recycling.
At full capacity, the facility will recycle nearly 90 million pounds of plastic waste per year, enough to encircle the globe in pallet wrap more than 135 times. It is expected to employ nearly 200 people.
Charter Next Generation has invested in the Plastic Flamingo to assist in the organization’s efforts to tackle marine plastic pollution in the Philippines.
