"Made for Recycling"

Greek olives producer GAEA has partnered with A.Hatzopoulos S.A. for the launch of its first recyclable, mono-material olives snack pack destined for the European market. The previously conventional packaging film used for this product was completely redesigned, to meet the latest guidelines for recycling, while it maintains at the same time its high-barrier properties. The mono-material, all-PP packs have been certified by Interseroh and carry the “Made for Recycling” mark.

Consumers today look for products with the lowest possible impact on the environment, with recyclability being one of the main attributes they seek from a product's packaging. Until recently, the end of a pack's life received minor attention. But the circular economy has changed that radically, highlighting the critical factor of the full life-cycle of a package and its importance when it comes to packaging development.

A. Hatzopoulos S.A. commits to implement the highest standards related to Occupational Health and Safety, in a manner that maximizes the prevention of incidents for its employees, its contractors and its visitors.

At the beginning of the year, we celebrated our 4th consecutive WorldStar Award, received for the recyclable packaging solutions we developed for our partner Lincoln & York in the UK. Now, we proudly announce that this recyclable coffee film range has also won the prestigious President’s Award, the highest category of the international packaging contest, rewarding the best of the best among all WorldStar Winners.
