Lapac has been committed for many years to respect and protect the environment. This approach takes the forms of:​

  Reduction of our water and energy consumption

  Reduction of our waste and optimization of its recovery

  Support of our customers towards alternative solutions in the use of eco-responsible materials such as recycled materials PCR PP, Post-Consumer Recycled, or PIR, Post-Industrial Recycled, or biosourced materials

  Reduction of the environmental impacts of our products from the conception by the analysis of product life cycle and the ecoconception

   Reduction of the weight of packaging

Lapac has been awarded by the French Union Polyvia the first European label that promotes the action of plastics manufacturers for the circular economy and the integration of recycled plastics in production: the MORE label. 

This is the second year that this label has been in existence: it provides genuine recognition of our commitment as an industrial company and testifies to our progress in promoting more sustainable consumption, with products that increasingly incorporate recycled plastics.

OUR ECO-RESPONSABLE MATERIALS

Recycled PP or PCR PP:

From the collection and selective sorting, PP packaging is sorted, shredded, washed and then regenerated to obtain PCR PP granules.
In order to guarantee the technical specifications of our packaging, the rate of use of PCR PP is recommended at 50%.
The PCR PP material is not certified food contact.
The PCR PP material is a recyclable material.

Lapac is offering packaging solutions made from PCR PP on all its standard ranges and on its specific products according to customer requirements. The packaging can be colored as virgin material with adapted colors to recycled material.

Recycled PP or PIR PP:

From the collection of residual products left behind by the industrial production, defects or scraps, the PP waste is sorted, shredded, washed and then regenerated to obtain PIR PP granules.
This recycled PP can be used alone (100%).
The PIR PP material is not certified food contact.
The PIR PP material is a recyclable material.

Biosourced raw materials:

Bio sourced raw material is a plastic made from renewable resources (sugar cane, corn, soy) versus plastic made from fossil material (oil).
The biosourced raw material is a virgin raw material, used at 100% and certified food contact.
The biosourced raw material is a recyclable material that enters the traditional recycling chain.

Lapac makes this biosourced material available to its customers who wish to give preference to its use.

... TO LEIGHTWEIGHT PACKAGING

The performance of our products is also in line with their lighter weight.

The  know-how of our R&D department and the implemenation of the analysis of product life cycle from the conception allow us to accompany our customers in their greatest challenge by offering solutions to reduce material weight by up to 30%.
