Designed to deliver the performance you'd expect from the highest quality stretch film on the market, SPTek ECLIPSE™ Stretch Film is 100% recyclable and will completely bio-assimilate in marine, terrestrial and landfill environments within 6–24 months, leaving behind zero microplastics.
Due to the globalized nature of our economy, stretch film is one of the largest uses of polyethylene in the world. With no real alternatives, essentially every pallet in the world is wrapped in this protective packaging.
Collectively, we manufacture nearly 2.5 billion lbs of stretch film each year. This means we're using enough stretch film to wrap around the earth 10 times... every single day.
As it's such a massive industry, one would hope that we are recycling this product as much as possible. Unfortunately, this is not the case, with only an estimated 5% of all stretch film being recycled worldwide.
We can't continue to ignore the impact that we're having on the environment.
It's time we take a good, hard look at the products that drive our economy and ensure they will not harm the planet and its inhabitants for generations to come.
First and foremost, this stretch film is 100% recyclable and purposely designed for the circular economy. However, if it evades the recycling system, SPTek ECLIPSE™ Stretch Film will completely bio-assimilate in marine, terrestrial and all landfill environments within 6–24 months, resulting in zero microplastics.
Definitively, "bio-assimilation" means that the stretch film has degraded to a molecular weight that can be consumed by microorganisms, resulting in nothing more than CO2, water and biomass.
