Dow announces breakthrough innovation with INNATE TF 220 Resin and collaboration with laundry detergent brand to advance packaging circularity.

INNATE TF 220 Resin from Dow, a groundbreaking innovation in design for recyclability.

10% Dow REVOLOOP PCR Resin integrated into the packaging of Liby‘s “Floral Era” detergent series.

From material design to end-of-life solutions, Dow is collaborating with stakeholders across the packaging chain to create impactful, scalable solutions to today’s sustainability challenges - transforming vision into commercial reality.

“This is sustainability in action, helping enable brands to balance performance benefits while scaling mono-material solutions and post-consumer recycled adoption. It’s how Dow turns vision into measurable progress, advancing both our partners’ goals and the circular economy,” said Bambang Candra, commercial vice president, APAC, Dow Packaging & Specialty Plastics.

INNATE TF 220 Resin for recyclable packaging

INNATE TF 220 Resin enables the design for recyclability and high-performance BOPE films for flexible packaging.

Featuring a distinct molecular architecture, the resin achieves breakthrough processing efficiency. Key benefits include exceptional extrusion stability and biaxial stretching processability, significantly reducing manufacturing waste.

It also enhances end-use performance with improved stiffness, heat resistance to meet stringent downstream requirements such as printing, lamination bag making, while helping enable attractive optical appearance and excellent abusing resistance for mono-material structures.

The upgraded performance of TF-BOPE films has already shown its versatility in a variety of applications including Food & Beverage packaging, and Home & Personal Care packaging.

Collaboration with Liby to integrate post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin in packaging

In collaboration with leading laundry detergent brand Liby, Dow facilitated the integration of 10% REVOLOOP Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Resin into the packaging of its new generation “Floral Era” detergent series, aiming to reduce carbon emissions while preserving pack durability.

This project demonstrates how Dow’s circularity approach can be adapted to practical, high-volume uses without compromising product performance or consumer experience.

“Our strategic partnership with Dow has led to innovations such as China’s first fully recyclable laundry packaging with Dow’s INNATE™ TF-BOPE and the new generation ‘Floral Era’ detergent series using Dow’s post-consumer recycled resins,” commented Zhang Liping, the general manager of Liby Research and Development Center.
