Innovia Films RayoFloatT polyolefin sleeves

Wednesday, 02 April, 2025 | Supplied by: Innovia Films Pty Ltd


Innovia Films has launched a high-shrink version of its RayoFloat shrink sleeve called RayoFloatT, which is made from recycling-friendly polyolefin (PO) material.

The polyolefin material is certified by recyclers and has been endorsed by RecyClass in Europe and APR in the United States.

The sleeves are compatible with most packaging formats, particularly bottles, and feature a high-gloss finish, good clarity and scuff resistance. They are compatible with both steam and hot air shrink tunnels.

The sleeve is also available in a low-density white version. RayoFloat WAPO is an opaque film that contributes to the light-blocking properties of the shrink sleeve that later can be applied to containers for light-sensitive products. This was developed for light-sensitive products such as dairy, supplements or vitamins. This enables brands to switch from a white HDPE bottle or opaque PET bottle that is generally not recycled back into food-grade packaging, to a transparent PET bottle that is widely food-grade recycled. The light-blocking barrier is moved to the printed sleeve itself.

The sleeve is crafted from a low-density polyolefin material that floats, facilitating the essential sink/float separation process in PET recycling. During this process, the heavier PET flakes sink to the bottom of the container, while the floatable sleeve material rises to the top, where it can be easily collected and removed. This separation results in high-quality, clean PET flakes suitable for recycling back into food-grade packaging for the dairy and other industries.
