Liveo Research has joined the RecyClass Initiative as a Platinum Member. RecyClass promotes plastic packaging recyclability and develops a coordinated approach for the use of recycled materials.

With this new membership, Liveo Research seeks to accomplish two goals: First, it aims to actively participate in this initiative and thereby advance circular economies in packaging. Lastly, Liveo Research wants new ideas for improving its sustainability strategy and its packaging innovation.

“Taking care of social and environmental well-being has always been a hallmark of Liveo Research. We provide unique, easily recyclable films for one-material tablet blisters as an example of this. The goal of joining RecyClass is to accelerate the momentum behind our sustainability initiatives,” says Dr. Carsten Heldmann, CEO of Liveo Research.
