Circular Packaging Solutions

AST is introducing CIPACKS. In this, packaging is collected, cleaned, ground and granulated after use. With the recycled granulate, we shape our sustainable production to ultimately offer 30 – 50% recycled product. In CIPACKS, we also give attention to reconditioned packaging; here, too, cleaning plays an important role.

We complete the cycle

We are focussing on a sustainable future and are completing the cycle. With our take-back system CIPACKS (Circular Packaging Solutions), we help you to complete the cycle together and offer you an overall solution for your company to switch to a circular economy.

We take back used packaging and give them a new life. With our processes, we clean used packaging so that they can be reused and returned to the market. If cleaning is not possible, we recycle them and process them to create a new raw material for our production. With the recycled granulate, we can offer up to 100% recycled packaging.

New material meets recycling and reconditioning

It is extremely important to us that our raw material processing helps to conserve resources and protect the environment. With our recycling and reconditioning plants, which are designed according to the latest state of the art for energy efficiency and resource conservation, we fulfil the requirements of ISO 50001 with the aim of reducing and improving energy-related performance. At the same time, we contribute to the sustainable use of resources and achieve water and heat recovery. Up to 98% of process water is recycled using our systems and then returned to the cycle. We aim to further optimise the carbon footprint of our packaging by making the process as climate-neutral as possible.
