Our truly innovative SPTek ECLIPSE™ Zipper has been developed to meet today's packaging challenges head-on, making them a vital component of sustainable flexible packaging design. Enabled with our patent-pending ECLIPSE™ technology and made from 100% recyclable material, our zippers are purposefully designed for the circular economy. If this product evades the recycling system following its tailor-made guaranteed functional life span, it will completely bio-assimilate in marine, terrestrial and landfill environments within 6–42 months. This process results in zero microplastics; a critical part of the solution to global plastic waste.
Traditionally, press-to-close zippers need to be removed from packaging so the plastic packaging can be recycled. This is a result of multiple types of plastic being used for both the packaging and the closing apparteous, a.k.a. the zipper, making it difficult to recycle and therefore unacceptable to most recycling centers. Press-to-close zippers have become a staple in the packaging industry and are an important way to preserve foods, pet food, dairy products, coffee, or to store cooked foods at home. But they’re typically unrecycable because of their material makeup.
SPTek ECLIPSE™ products replace widely adopted and trusted products with ones that leaves absolutely no trace and is completely recyclable - the SPTek ECLIPSE™ Zipper is no different. Press-to-close zippers are used in all forms of packaging to ensure freshness and an easy seal for consumers. Developing a homogenous zipper that is also enabled with ECLIPSE™ technology ensures the zipper can be recycled and if it isn’t, it will bio-assimilate in any environment.
With the ECLIPSE™ Zipper there’s no need to sacrifice a quality product for something that is better for the environment! Press-to-close zippers are popular because they are useful, our ECLIPSE™ Zippers ensures you can stick to trusted technology without damaging the environment. Made with homogenous material, consumers won’t have to think twice about recycling the zippers, making it easier for your customers to dispose of your packaging correctly.
