Beontag, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of self-adhesives and smart tags such as RFID, NFC, and Bluetooth technology, has announced its PET Wash-Off adhesive has officially been certified by the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR). The adhesive meets the highest U.S. standard for PET recyclability and is backed by trusted third party validation, enhancing performance for both brands and converters. This marks an important step in Beontag’s continued commitment to providing sustainable and technically sound solutions for the labeling industry.
Beontags PET Wash-Off adhesive is a pressure-sensitive solution specifically engineered for PET packaging using BOPP face stocks. It also offers a distinctive solution in the market with conventional adhesives often leaving residue on PET surfaces, leading to discoloration, hazing, and diminishing material quality in the recycling process. Beontag’s advanced adhesive formulation overcomes these challenges by ensuring clean removability, enabling true circular recycling of PET while preserving its integrity.
