Labeling, packaging materials and solutions provider in the US, Avery Dennison has launched a matrix recycling tool in a bid to help its converter customers divert and process scrap.
Developed in collaboration with key converters, recyclers and channel partners, the interactive tool has been launched on the company's website and is located at: label.averydennison.com/en/home/solutions/sustainability.html.
Avery Dennison Materials Group sustainability manager Rosalyn Bandy said many of its customers are improving their sustainability footprint.
"We have created this matrix recycling tool as a response to those looking to reduce their impact by sending less waste to landfills," Bandy said.
The tool features a directory that indicates locations of non-landfill operations or energy-from-waste facilities.
Most of the operations process discarded pressure-sensitive scrap materials that are generated by label presses into clean, renewable energy sources.
