In a world where sustainability is increasingly a necessity, reducing environmental impact through responsible production processes is a priority for every conscious company. At Alkam, we have chosen to take concrete action by promoting recycling practices that allow us to minimize waste and reduce CO₂ emissions.
We are therefore proud to announce that in 2024, we recycled 14.2 tons of siliconized paper waste, contributing to an estimated reduction of 27 tons of CO₂ eq., as certified by our partner Cycle4Green.
The Importance of Liner Recycling
Siliconized paper (or liner) is an essential material in the self-adhesive label industry, but it often ends up in landfills or incinerators. However, with the right recycling process, it can be transformed into a reusable resource, reducing environmental impact and promoting a more circular economy.
Thanks to our collaboration with Cycle4Green, our waste liner is reintroduced into the production cycle, preventing waste and reducing raw material consumption.
Our Impact in 2024
💡 14.2 tons of siliconized paper recycled
💨 27 tons of CO₂ eq. emissions saved
🌍 A concrete contribution to reducing environmental impact
How Does the Recycling Process Work?
Cycle4Green employs advanced technology that separates the silicone from the cellulose fibers in the paper, making it reusable for the production of new specialty papers.
This process offers several benefits, including:
Reducing the use of virgin raw materials
Lowering CO₂ emissions
Decreasing water and energy consumption, essential resources for our planet.
