Reducing virgin plastic consumption by producing sustainable Carton Skin trays for food packaging

PRTR Call for Proposals Project

The project of Gráficas APR, S.L. consists of the transition from the manufacture of thermoformed polypropylene trays to the production of Carton Skin trays, a more sustainable alternative. These trays use only 2.55 grams of plastic per unit, instead of the 30.63 grams of traditional ones, achieving an annual saving of 249,407 kg of synthetic material. In addition, Carton Skin trays are made of recycled and recyclable cardboard, improving efficiency in the use of materials and contributing to environmental sustainability.
