S-OneLP Products Win Commercial Success in Degradability Innovation Award

SARASOTA, Florida (May 5, 2025) – S-OneLP is excited to announce its recognition as a 2025 Commercial Success in Degradability Innovation honoree. RadTech, the association for UV and eBeam (EB) Technology, selected S-OneLP’s ReEarth pouch, REE34MSUP, coated with our matte eBeam OPV, KKLP705, for this award. This honor highlights an important pillar of sustainability: designing products with their end-of-life (EOL) in mind. The award aims to promote research and development of degradable materials.
 
KKLP705 Matte eBeam Coating Performance

• Can be used to protect HP Indigo inks or EB offset inks and offers rub and scratch resistance
• Dependable cure response
• Ideal for label and flexible packaging surface print protection with a matte finish

When an item is discarded, it often increases non-degradable waste in landfills. Even most “recyclable” plastics have the same result. RadTech reports, “An estimated 9% of the world’s plastic waste results in being recycled.” Research and development along with packaging technology are paramount in the design of degradable materials to fight pollution. 

“S-OneLP is committed to widening sustainable opportunities for converters by providing them with a variety of environmentally friendly product options,” stated Dan Halkyard, Senior Director Product Development, S-OneLP. “Our ReEarth line of prelaminated flexible packaging films offer bio-based and compostable solutions. Also, our formulated EB  coatings and adhesives when used in recommended coat weights, do no inhibit compostablility.”
 
ReEarth 3.4 mil Silver Compostable Pouch Web is our film that won the degradability award. REE34MSUP is made in the USA from USDA certified bio-based, compostable materials, and the laminated structure formed into a printed and protected pouch has been certified by TUV for both Commercial and Home compostability. This eco-friendly packaging is designed to have excellent barrier properties, a robust sealant layer for closures, and perfect stiffness for gusseted pouches that stand on their own. Our sustainable product packaging is made from compostable materials that are responsibly sourced. This metallized laminated film structure can be surface printed by either digital or analog technology and is compatible with most pouching equipment.

• Metallized barrier layer -Keeps package contents fresher longer
• Thick bio-sealant layer – Compatible with most  compostable closures/zippers

Applications include dry food content pouches or bar wraps. At their end of life, they are home and industrial compostable. The pouch film was surface printed on an HP Indigo press and then coated with our CatPak™ matte eBeam coating to protect the package surface. The ReEarth printed and e-beamed pouch passed ASTMD6400 and EN13432 testing. Additionally, our film is certified for commercial and home compostability by BPI, TUV, and is Lomi Approved™, the manufacturer of a countertop composting unit. The USDA has also approved our film for its bio-based content.
