EcoCortec launches UV-resistant shrink VCI film with PCR content
EcoCortec launches VpCI-126 HP UV Shrink Film PCR, a PCR version of VpCI-126 HP UV Shrink Film, to provide a sustainable solution for protecting metals from corrosion.
VpCI-126 HP UV Shrink Film PCR offers corrosion protection to metal parts.
EcoCortec’s Croatian plant is a leading manufacturer of sustainable VpCI/VCI packaging solutions in Europe. The plant entered a recycling partnership with Jakob Schober GmbH of Waldorf, Germany in 2024.
Plastic scrap from Waldorf, Germany is returned to EcoCortec's plant in Beli Manastir, Croatia. Upon arrival, the recycled polymer is inspected at EcoCortec, re-granulated using reprocessing equipment, and tested in the lab.
Recycling machine from EREMA is used.
Cortec's VpCI-126 HP UV Shrink Film PCR combines high strength resins with ultraviolet light stabilizers (UV), Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor Technology and 30 % of high-quality post-consumer recycled content. The film, infused with unique UV-resistant inhibitors that prevent degradation, protects metal parts against rust and corrosion lasting up to three years.
The film is ideally suited for transit staging, and lay-up of critical equipment, including equipment with large void spaces, multiple metals, and complex geometries.
This film not only delivers exceptional protection but also embodies the principles of a circular economy, proving that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand.
