Spiral Turns Milk Jugs Into Loose Leaf Binders
Turn any marketing project into an environmentally friendly product by using post consumer polyethylene.When you turn in plastics for recycling they are reprocessed and made into new products. We believe it's important to minimize our impact on the planet by re-using reclaimed plastic. Hence, we have developed our 2ndGenesisTM recycled sheet material. Extruded polyethylene post-consumer plastic (PE-PCR) from reclaimed milk jugs can be converted into many packaging applications including custom binders, tabs, pocket folders, covers, boxes or anything your design team can imagine. Not only is 2ndGenesisTM good for the environment it is typically less expensive than virgin PE resin. It is available in 6 stock colors and 6 translucent, trendy colors in several standard thicknesses and any PMS opaque color and can be extruded in thicknesses from 0.015 to 0.125 gauge.
