Circular Solutions: Ecodesign
Thanks to its dedicated research program, TotalEnergies incorporates ecodesign principles into its development process to achieve higher performance with less material and to enhance the recyclability of end products.
Improved recycling
Through the replacement of multimaterial structures (e.g., BOPP and PET) with monomaterial structures, TotalEnergies offers a fully recyclable high-barrier packaging solution.
Unlaminated packaging
TotalEnergies and COLINES announced in 2023 the proof of concept of an Unlaminated Recyclable Stand-Up Pouch suitable for food-contact applications.
Laminated packaging
In 2022, TotalEnergies joined forces with Windmöller & Hölscher and Mitsubishi Chemical Group to develop a fully recyclable High Barrier Stand-up Pouch suitable for food-contact applications.
Resource efficiency
TotalEnergies high-performing resins allow to push further the downgauging possibilities in packaging products while maintaining identical performance.
Recycled can cap with 25% weight reduction
In 2024, TotalEnergies and Bericap launched a cap for 20-liter lubricant packaging made from 50% recycled plastic and weighing 25% less than its virgin alternative.
High-performance resin for tethered caps
In 2023, TotalEnergies unveiled a new high-density polyethylene resin for tethered caps that ensures identical technical performances with less material.
