FAQs

What is PCR content? 

Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) content refers to materials that have been used by consumers and then collected, cleaned, and processed to create new products. This process helps reduce waste and conserve resources by giving a second life to materials.

Choosing PCR packaging helps reduce the reliance on virgin materials, lowers carbon emissions, conserves energy, and supports your brand’s sustainability goals. It also can be a factor in mitigating taxes such as the UK Plastic Packaging Tax if the content is over 30% recycled material.

BlueSky offers PCR packaging solutions across various materials, including PET, HDPE, and aluminium. These range from bottles and jars to tins and are suitable for a wide array of applications in the personal care, health care, and food & beverage industries.

Yes, PCR materials can sometimes alter the appearance of packaging. For example, PCR PET may show slight variations in clarity depending on the level of recycled content. However, this does not affect the functionality or safety of the packaging.

Yes, aluminium is infinitely recyclable without loss of quality, making it an excellent choice for sustainable packaging. Our PCR aluminium options maintain all the properties of virgin aluminium and are suitable for the same wide range of uses.

Packaging that contains more than 30% recycled content is exempt from the UK Plastic Packaging Tax. By opting for PCR content, you not only embrace sustainability but also gain a financial advantage by avoiding this tax.
