Pöppelmann Famac launches high-PCR spouts and caps for stand-up pouches

Pöppelmann Famac has developed spouts and caps containing more than 90 percent post-consumer recycled polyethylene for non-food spouted pouches, targeting household and personal care applications. The components can be heat-sealed to mono-PE pouch film using a patented welding base designed to reduce thermal stress on the film. A 10.5mm spout is launching first, with additional sizes planned.

Why this mattersExtends recycled content beyond pouch film to spouts and caps, helping brand owners meet PPWR recyclability and recycled-content requirements for flexible packaging.

• Pöppelmann Famac's new spouts and caps use more than 90 percent PCR-PE sourced from household recycling collections
• Initial launch covers a 10.5mm diameter spout for non-food uses such as cosmetics and detergents
• The patented welded base uses a wave structure to reduce heat damage to mono-PE film during sealing
• The PCR components are aimed at non-food only; food applications continue to use existing LowSealing PE/PP spouts
• Development is part of the company-wide Pöppelmann Blue sustainability initiative
• Products will be shown at the Fakuma trade fair, Hall A1, Stand 1001
