What Looks Better for YOUR Brand Package?
Traditional Polyolefin Shrink Films
Most polyolefin shrink films do not meet the qualifications for today’s current recycling streams and only qualify for the “Not Yet Recycled” label.
Clysar® EVO™, EVOX™, EVO-C™, EVO™ ShrinkBox® and ULTRA LEG Shrink Films
Developed utilizing guidelines of the How2Recycle® program, these films offer a prequalification letter for use of the Store Drop-Off label. (Brand owners must submit label use requests.)
Clysar® EVOX™ high-speed, high-strength film provides optimum strength, protection and throughput for demanding shrink applications.
Clysar® EVO™ multi-purpose shrink film is a versatile, recyclable replacement for most existing shrink packaging applications.
Clysar® EVO-C™ confidential film is an ultra-durable opaque shrink film ideal for secondary shipping and stabilization, UV-protection, product masking and containment.

How2Recycle® – The Official Source for Recycling Icons
The How2Recycle® label is a standardized labeling system that clearly communicates packaging recycling instructions to the public. It is the only label program that can supply the official How2Recycle icon for your brand packaging.
The retail industry is moving toward mandating labels that provide consumers clear and easy recycling information. By offering a recyclable shrink film label for store drop-off, you are well-positioned to meet retailers’ goals for improved communication and sustainability.
To use the official Store Drop-Off and other recycling logos on consumer packaging, companies must first be members of How2Recycle®. Then, individual packaging materials must be evaluated for logo use.
Clysar® EVO™, EVOX™, EVO-C™, EVO™ ShrinkBox® and ULTRA LEG™ shrink films have received official preapproval letters from How2Recycle for the Store Drop-Off recycling label. This prequalification letter makes it significantly faster and easier to obtain permissions to use the label icons.
Shrink films that are not approved for the Store Drop-Off label may have to submit to vigorous testing by independent labs to ensure the film meets the requirements of the recycling stream. Films that do not meet these requirements are only eligible to use the “Not Yet Recycled” icon.
Note every package application still requires final authorization for label use.
