Constantia Flexibles’ Labels division has introduced SpearRC, an environmentally friendly technology developed to allow PET bottles to use pressure sensitive labels without the recycling contamination of traditional materials.

Spear has worked in conjunction with North America’s APR (Association of Post-Consumer Plastics Recyclers) to create a recyclable pressure sensitive label alternative since 2002, but the original materials were cost-prohibitive to most customers. Spear continued development and, with the release of SpearRC, has introduced a cost-effective recycling solution, including clear, white and metalized film material options.

SpearRC first hit the market in Norway with Carlsberg Group’s oldest and best selling bottled mineral water Farris in early 2014.
