First wood-based PE film label developed by UPM Biofuels and Dow

UPM Raflatac launches UPM Raflatac Forest Film PE to complement its range of sustainable film labeling solutions. The new PE film label takes UPM Raflatac forward in its quest for a smarter future beyond fossils, decreasing the use of fossil-based virgin raw materials in home and personal care labeling applications.

 

“We want to bring value to our clients by offering a wide variety of sustainable alternatives to choose from, such as UPM Raflatac Forest Film PE and PP, the first wood-based film label materials on the market, and UPM Raflatac PP PCR manufactured from post-consumer recycled plastic,” says Timo Kekki, Vice President, Films SBU UPM Raflatac.

 

The Forest Film PE label material is produced in collaboration with UPM Biofuels and Dow. UPM Biofuels provides the 100 percent wood residue-based raw material UPM BioVerno naphtha, which is then processed by Dow into bio-based plastic granules to be extruded into label film.

UPM Raflatac has launched UPM Raflatac Forest Film PE.


“This new product shows the versatility of UPM BioVerno as a raw material. Crude tall oil, a residue of paper pulp production, is transformed into UPM BioVerno naphtha, which can be used as raw material for different kinds of plastics,” says Panu Routasalo, Vice President, UPM Biofuels.

 

Forest Film PE starts UPM’s collaboration with Dow in labeling applications. Last year Dow announced the commercialization of bio-plastics offerings for the packaging and labeling industry made from a bio-based renewable feedstock.

 

Dow integrated the wood-based UPM BioVerno naphtha – a key raw material used to develop plastics – into its slate of raw materials, creating an alternative source for plastics production. Dow uses this feedstock to produce different types of bio-based polyethylenes (PE).

 

“This Forest Film PE material helps customers and consumers reduce the reliance on fossil fuels and therefore reduces the carbon footprint in the entire value chain,” adds Carolina Gregorio, Biobased project leader at Dow.

 

The Forest Film product range has an International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS). It is produced using sustainable bio-feedstock, replacing the equivalent amount of fossil resources used in the production process, using a mass balance approach, accounting for the amount of sustainable resources.
