01 — Definition
Recyclable packaging is flexible packaging engineered from a single polymer family — or a widely recycled material like PET — so it can be accepted in standard kerbside or industrial recycling streams. Tansox manufactures recyclable flexible packaging including all-PE, all-PP and recyclable PET structures so brands can offer sustainable packaging that fits into existing recycling infrastructure without requiring new consumer behaviours.
02 — Why It Matters
The numbers behind the switch.
Recyclability claims need practical infrastructure, compatible material design and proof that the pack can be processed after use.
14%
Only 14% of flexible plastic packaging is currently collected for recycling globally
Designing for actual collection and processing helps brands move beyond claims and into measurable circularity.

Recyclable packaging for hygiene & medical.
The same hygiene, personal care and medical markets Tansox already serves — now with certified recyclable mono-material structures available across every product format.
07 — Why Tansox
Sustainability is a discipline, not a marketing line.
50 Years Manufacturing Experience
Established ~1975 in Quanzhou, Fujian. We've evolved from conventional laminates to certified sustainable structures — the production know-how transfers, the substrate doesn't.
EACC Quality Management Certified
Active quality management system covering all flexible packaging output. Every production lot ships with COA and supporting declarations for the selected sustainable structure.
Flexible Shipping Terms
Three Incoterms, two ports, one consolidated container per customer. Sustainable orders ship with the same lead times and freight options as our conventional line.
08 — Frequently Asked
Questions buyers ask before quote.
Recyclable flexible packaging uses a single polymer family (mono-material) — such as all-PE or all-PP — so it can be processed in standard recycling streams. Traditional multi-layer laminates (PET/AL/PE) mix incompatible materials making them unrecyclable. Tansox's mono-material structures are tested and certified to How2Recycle and Recyclass standards confirming recyclability in target markets.
Yes. Tansox produces packaging structures eligible for the How2Recycle programme in the US and equivalent Recyclass certification in the EU. Certification is confirmed at the structure level — our sales team can advise which specific all-PE or all-PP structures carry certification and issue supporting documentation with your sample order.
Standard MOQ for custom-printed recyclable packaging is 10,000 units per SKU. Mono-material structures are available across all standard formats — stand up pouches, zipper bags, flat bottom bags and rollstock film. Unprinted stock may be available from 5,000 units — confirm with the sales team.
