CELAB brings together companies across the matrix and liner industry value chain to address the wide variance in production processes and recycling capability in different markets.
Henkel Adhesive Technologies recently announced that it has joined the global consortium toward a Circular Economy for Labels (CELAB). The consortium is dedicated to creating a more sustainable self-adhesive labeling industry. The organization brings together companies across the matrix and liner industry value chain, working together to address the wide variance in production processes and recycling capability in different markets. With CELAB, Henkel joins other leading companies to facilitate collaboration at a global level, foster regional initiatives, and find and encourage the universal adoption of industry best practices.
“In order to truly rethink packaging and create a viable circular economy, we must all work together across the entire value chain,” said Brian Lawrence, business development director at Henkel. “This is why we became one of the first members of CELAB and are looking forward to working side-by-side with self-adhesive label manufacturers to align and engage our global resources.”
