Flexible packaging isn't going away anytime soon, and an upcoming pilot project seeks to ensure it doesn't go to landfill. In coming months, additional sorting equipment will be installed at the TotalRe-cycle materials recovery facility (MRF) in Birdsboro, Pa. The retrofit will allow the facility to begin generating bales of post-consumer flexible packaging, defined as single-layer or multi-material films such as chip bags, stand-up pouches, candy wrappers, retail bags and more.
