Sev-Rend announces new sustainable packaging line

Collinsville, Ill.-based Sev-Rend has introduced its new Bio-Able Solutions product line. 

Enabled with bio-assimilation technology, Bio-Able Solutions products are 100% recyclable and uniquely formulated to fully degrade in both marine and terrestrial environments, leaving behind no micro-plastic waste, according to a news release.

Bio-Able Solutions, the company said, break down in 24 months and still retains the unique features of traditional plastic that makes it a favorable packaging vehicle. The products also are FDA approved and 100% recyclable as well, according to the release.

Bio-Able Solutions by Sev-Rend directly addresses plastic and food packaging sustainability, the release said.

“We are in the process of certifying all packaging products manufactured by Sev-Rend for the Bio-Able Solution product line,” Luigi Indacochea, Northeast sales manager and sustainable team leader, said in the release. “We currently have our SR-Film and Sof-Net Netting certified for the line and are working to have our tag and pouch products certified as well.” 

The Bio-Able Solutions line has been under development for some time, Jeff Watkin, director of marketing for Sev-Rend, said in the release. “We all have skin in this game as the growth of single-use plastics is forecasted to continue to rise. A solution is needed that crosses multiple areas of the sustainable packaging front and we feel confident this helps service 100% of the consumer base, which current options do not achieve.”
