Grinloop^® , (a patented technology*), is an ideal resin choice for creating sustainable products with wide range of barrier properties; the products that will be seamlessly integrated in your existing lines.

Its remarkable performance remains consistent in a wide spectrum of environmental conditions, making it a versatile and excellent option for various applications.

Ready to Recycle

High Barrier

Safe for Food

Ready to Recycle

GrinLoop incorporated packaging is fully recyclable within PE recycling stream according to the most strict recycling crtieria in North America.

Ready-to-Recycle

High Barrier

GrinLoop provides excellent weather-resistant barrier properties covering a spectrum of barrier properties between High to Medium barrier applications.

Oxygen & Chemical Barrier

Safe for Food

GrinLoop has obtained approvals from both the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and Health Canada, allowing it to be used as a core layer in food packaging materials. These regulatory approvals signify that GrinLoop meets the necessary safety and quality standards for indirect food contact applications, ensuring it can be confidently incorporated into food packaging solutions.

GHG Reduction Potential

Incorporating GrinLoop® into your product structure can significantly lower the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of your products—by up to 35%, depending on the product structure, materials used and application requirements. This carbon footprint economy can even be acchieved excluding recycling step in some applications. An example is shown below.

Features of GrinLoop^®

Consistent Protection

More Stable Barrier Properties in various humidities is a big advantage point for GrinLoop.

Improved Protection

Most barrier materials are intrinsically susceptible to moisture, however GrinLoop has shown enhanced WVTR in barrier resins league.

Plug&Play

Seamlessly adaptable with existing infrastructure without the need to add any other elements in your system.

Smooth Downguaging

with its enhanced mechanical uniformity with PE, it allows reducing the PE layer thickness without compromising flexibility.

Reduced GHG emissions

Through extra design versatility possiblity, it gives the designers a tool to optimize the design for lower GHG, and with its different grades, it replaces carbon intensive materials.

Versatile Design Options

Using different grades of Grinloop, and considering the high compatibility with PE (30% allowance in PE and still considered monomaterial), it has a significant impact on the design options.

How it all started...

A Nation-wide challenge was addressed!

The demand for multi-layered products with strong oxygen barrier properties is essential across numerous industries. However, the complexity of these structures has made them traditionally non-recyclable, posing significant environmental challenges.

Recognizing this issue, we embarked on a mission to develop a sustainable solution. Our journey took a pivotal turn when Environment and Climate Change Canada, in collaboration with Innovative Solutions Canada, initiated a challenge aimed at reducing the environmental impact of food packaging waste. GrinLoop, our innovative approach, was not only chosen as the preferred solution but also emerged as the nationwide winner, affirming our commitment to tackling this critical issue.

FAQ

Can I integrate GrinLoop into my existing multilayer line without modifications?

Yes, one of its major advantages is its compatibility with existing equipment. While some adjustments to processing parameters may be needed for optimal performance, majority of times, no change is required in the existing lines. Our team will guide you through this during initial trials.

What are the "Recyclability" limitations of using GrinLoop in creating sustainable products?

GrinLoop stands out from other barrier resins because it can be incorporated up to 30% in recyclable product structures. This is a unique advantage not seen with other resins. As a result, designers have greater flexibility and creativity in their product designs.

Where is Grinloop made currently and is it available for commercial purchase?

Grinloop is made in Canada currently and the expansions are planned for EU production in 2025.

And Yes, GrinLoop is now commercially available.

As a European company, can we access GrinLoop?

Absolutely! GrinLoop ships worldwide.

How is the purging process for GrinLoop, and is a special purge required after trials? How easily can it be processed?

GrinLoop is likely one of the smoothest barrier resins you'll process. Before introducing GrinLoop, simply purge out any previous resins from the extruder. After your run, a quick purge with LDPE will quickly clean up your extruder.

Is GrinLoop exclusively for Medium barrier applications?

No, GrinLoop is versatile and can be used for a range of barrier requirements (depending on the grade), from high to medium.
