Corplex Launches Closed-Loop De-Inking for Correx Signage
Story Overview
Corplex has launched a mechanical de-inking process for printed polypropylene Correx boards that prints directly onto mono-material boards, eliminating glued vinyl and enabling closed-loop recycling. The method restores 70% of recycled material into new boards, up from 20% previously, and extends board reuse to more than ten cycles. Carbon Quota certification confirms an 80% carbon footprint reduction, saving over 3,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. Described as the first scalable mechanical de-inking process for printed polypropylene signage, the innovation won the Circular Economy Initiative category at the National Recycling Awards.
