This follows the RecyClass Technology Approval for the same innovation in the HDPE stream in October 2024. This development provides brand owners and converters with the confidence that their label solutions can meet stringent recycling guidelines with a clear path towards more sustainable packaging for both HDPE and PET. At Labelexpo in Barcelona (September 16-19, 2025), Avery Dennison will demonstrate how AD CleanFlake labels release cleanly from both PET and HDPE flakes during recycling.
AD CleanFlake offers outstanding performance in adhesion, clarity and conversion without compromising on application efficiency or versatility. It delivers excellent print quality and improved productivity with the TC7007 topcoat. This enables brands to create impactful packaging that stands out on shelf. Brand owners using these materials can now certify their packaging with the potential for an A-class rating, helping them become PPWR-ready and potentially reduce their Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) fees.
