ORBIS Corp. has introduced ORBIShield ECO, a new dunnage product line focused on providing protective packaging solutions while reducing environmental impacts. This new product line promotes and demonstrates the reuse of materials and reduces reliance on single-use packaging.
The ORBIShield ECO line is produced using recovered and reprocessed plastic resins and can be recycled at end of life, making it suitable for companies looking to enhance their sustainability efforts. Products include:
ECOLux: Crafted from polypropylene, ECOLux coated fabric is an alternative to clear PVC, as well as light and heavy weight PVC, which are not accepted by most recyclers in North America. ECOLux is suitable for curtains, dust covers, and full fabric dunnage solutions.
Evolon Laminate (shown): With 70% postconsumer recycled content, Evolon lamination ensures lint-free protection for highly delicate parts while simultaneously supporting the reuse of recovered post-consumer material. Each square foot of Evolon lamination is equivalent to diverting one post-consumer bottle from a landfill.
EPE: EPE (Expanded Polyethylene Foam) is a lightweight and durable closed cell beaded foam used for protecting and cushioning products during transportation and storage. At end of life, it is 100% recyclable. EPE foam can be used in various applications, such as dunnage rails, cavity pads, and cushioning.
