‘We’re committed to sustainability without compromising on performance,’ comments Marc. ‘Through our close partnership with Selva — a leader in world-class shrink sleeve distribution and machinery throughout Europe and beyond — we’ve introduced downgauged shrink sleeve materials that significantly reduce carbon footprints and costs. These thinner materials minimise waste and cut down on energy consumption during the shrinking process.’
Morgancoat’s efforts to enhance shelf appeal are equally impressive. Its new matte shrink films and white opaque options are helping brands stand out in a crowded marketplace. ‘Our white PET film, for instance, doesn’t just offer sleek, eye-catching designs – it provides UV-blocking properties, eliminating the need for tinted PET or glass bottles,’ he explains. ‘This also allows brands to reduce the thickness of their glass containers, cutting down on material usage and further lowering their environmental impact.’
In response to growing consumer and regulatory demand for eco-friendly packaging, Morgancoat is pushing the envelope with lightweight, recyclable materials. ‘We’re constantly looking for ways to provide packaging solutions that offer both sustainability and superior performance,’ Marc adds.
For those in Cape Town and surrounding areas, Morgancoat’s MC Express has relocated to Mega Park, Belville, offering faster same-day delivery. Reach out to Kelvin at kelvin@morgancoat.com for more information.
