Another step forward for HEXIS in its CSR strategy

HEXIS and its CSR strategy: a new step towards a more sustainable industry

At the General Assembly of the visual communications trade association FESPA France, held in Paris on 6 June, HEXIS SAS unveiled its new solution for recovering self-adhesive film and liners.

This new programme covers the recovery of Kraft liners, Kraft PE liners and PVC films (coloured, printed or laminated) from converting, weeding, removal and other scraps, and is being implemented in the network of partners and clients in France.

In the same way that we launched the roll end piece recovery programme last year, our current and future customers such as converters, printers and processors can now embark on this fantastic adventure at our side.

Our QHSE team has established a partnership with three organisations that facilitate the industrial reuse of materials. This programme is being implemented across the network of partners and clients in France.

Here we explain how this recycling programme is put in place in the HEXIS industry.

Give new life to your liners and PVC scraps

Every year more than 400,000 tonnes of paper liner are consumed in Europe, and in France alone almost 2 million tonnes of PVC. Making both financial and ecological savings, our collection programme offers you new possibilities for recycling in a sustainable way. With HEXIS, it becomes simple to recycle your Kraft or PE liner waste and your PVC film scrap.

The 3 main objectives of recycling liners

• Reduction of waste
• Save money
• Reduce your carbon footprint

We want to give our environment and our profession a better future.

How to make your business more sustainable?

To start collecting, you need to register your business in a CSR process and recover your waste. All this will save you time, money and space!

To enrol your company in this new CSR process, you need to inform the sales representative for your zone, and he will tell you about the steps to be taken.

This approach echoes the CSR strategy and commitments of HEXIS to offer solutions for:

• Optimise the end-of-life of its products
• Limit the environmental impact of our activities
• Reduce waste at source while seeking innovative solutions to increase recycling
• Take sustainable action to reduce our generation of waste

Developing the circular economy at the heart of our production

The objective of this approach is to limit the environmental impact of our operations. We are looking to reduce waste at source, while seeking innovative solutions to increase recycling, with the aim of taking sustainable action to reduce the amount of waste we produce.

Our CSR policy on waste recycling is centred primarily on 4 strategic lines:

1. Constantly reduce released atmospheric emissions
2. Reduce the amount of waste we generate while prioritising the recycling of materials
3. Propose solutions to optimise the end-of-life of our products
4. Reduce our energy impact by using the right and sufficient amount of energy

This new step represents a major advance for our profession on the subject of reclaiming and recycling of these materials!
