We’re pleased to present an important milestone in our sustainability journey — a project that reflects a strategic shift in how we approach production and environmental responsibility.
In collaboration with Crocco SpA SB and Aliplast (HERA Group), IRSAP has successfully implemented a closed-loop recycling process that enables the complete recovery of plastic waste generated by the shrink film used to package our products.
Process Overview
- Polyethylene scraps from our production lines are collected by Aliplast, which handles the selection, cleaning, and transformation into post-consumer recycled plastic pellets.
- These are then supplied to Crocco, who uses them to manufacture new shrink films containing 50% recycled material.
The result? A production cycle that reduces emissions and gives materials a second life within the industrial chain. A tangible commitment made possible by strong collaboration with local partners who, like us, believe in a responsible, replicable industry model.
In 2025, we aim to produce 95 tons of shrink film, reusing all of our plastic waste — ensuring nothing goes to landfill.
As our CEO Marco Rossi puts it: "At IRSAP, production efficiency has always been a core value. This project proves that sustainability can — and must — be integrated into every level of our operations."
