It may surprise you to learn that not only is recycled plastic sustainable, but it's the sustainable solution. Provided it already exists, that is. That's why we use 100% recycled and recyclable HDPE, so we can reuse the plastic we already have indefinitely. HDPE stands for high-density polyethylene, the same material used to make milk jugs.
HDPE is strong, sturdy, flexible, non-toxic and food safe. It is one of the most widely collected and recycled materials and is indefinably recyclable. After extensive testing and for the reasons above, PakTech chose 100% recycled and recyclable HDPE as the preferred material for their sustainable packaging handles.
