Ecology

Care for the natural environment is our priority. 

We develop ever better solutions concerning recycling of plastic packaging. We were the first in Poland to launch a production line for film from PET recycled materials, using these to manufacture marketable products.
We are a producer of three-layer R-PET film consisting of 70% PET material from PCR (Post Consumer Recycling) and PIR (Post Industrial Recycling). The unique food safe composition of the film enables all the requirements of Directive 10/2011/EU and Regulation EC 1935/2004 to be met, thanks to the presence of a functional barrier. Its excellent properties have also been confirmed by tests at independent institutions, including COBRO.

Bearing in mind the effectiveness and economic concerns, our company takes advantage of mechanical recycling of PET packaging. We also take care to ensure that our partners receive ready solutions connected with recovery logistics.

All Hanex raw materials and products comply fully with Directive 94/62/EU and are fully recyclable. This is one of the most important requirements for our products, and one of the points of Hanex’s Quality Policy.

We conduct selective collection of waste and record its transfer to appropriately authorised entities for recycling or neutralising. We are also in continuous collaboration with a waste recovery organisation, thus ensuring the legally required degree of recovery of particular types of packaging, as well as participating in the costs of conducting public education campaigns.

The modern technologies in use at GTX Hanex Plastic Sp. z o.o. do not cause major emissions of gases or dust into the air. However, we have an account with KOBIZE, The National Centre for Emissions Management, where we regularly submit reports with regard to emissions.

We make every effort to ensure that packaging waste disposal is in line with the latest world trends. We process PET waste into raw materials used at our plant, which directly and significantly reduces the amount of waste going to landfill. In this way we are realising our strategy of minimising the detrimental effects of our business on the environment as we think about future generations.
