Aquapak developed Hydropol, a new polymer which is soluble and non-toxic to marine life, for to be used as an alternative to conventional plastic in garment bag production for fashion industry.

According to a new study conducted by Aquapak with fashion brands and retailers in the UK, US and Australia, over one third (37%) said that reducing the use of polyethylene plastic in packaging is a highly important part of their sustainability strategy.

Aquapak’s Hydropol is used to produce plastic garment bag for fashion industry.

To help reduce plastic packaging pollution problem, Aquapak’s new Hydropol provides the same functionality and performance as conventional plastic, but without causing environmental problems. The sustainable grade delivers strength, puncture resistance, clarity, and protection from leakages and dirt.

Garment bags produced with Hydropol lead to zero end-of-life issues for consumers and brands. They can be disposed of in existing domestic waste stream, without contaminating other recyclable products, or they can be dissolved immediately in hot water without producing dangerous micro-plastics.

“Aquapak is already working with several early-adopter fashion companies who are determined to drive a significant change in the industry by embracing upstream innovation in packaging,” stated Mark Lapping, CEO.
