GREEN GERSCHON - BEAUTIFULLY PACKAGED. NATURALLY.

Green Gerschon offers you a wide standard range made of environmentally friendly Green PE and PCR materials.

Moving towards sustainability is both an ecological and economical necessity - with many consumers already expecting brands to offer eco-friendly options. Especially when they are affordable and convenient, like our carbon-neutral Green PE, which is based on sugarcane as a renewable resource. It has almost identical technical and aesthetic properties as conventional polyethylene, also regarding its recyclability. A recycling system accepted by the consumer is essential for a sustainable circular economy. That is why Green PE is easily recycled via common waste management systems in Europe.

And last but not least: Our Green PE and PCR products simply are beautiful, with a modern look and feel. Both ranges are certified for (vegan and natural) cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.

With bottles and jars from our Green Gerschon range, you make a striking statement and enhance the branding of your high-quality products in an innovative and sustainable way.

SUGARCANE FROM BRAZIL - AN ECO-FRIENDLY JACK-OF-ALL-TRADES.

Sugarcane is a low maintenance crop, absorbs CO2 from the air during growth and grows on a variety of soils. Unlike its petroleum-based counterpart, the bio-based Green PE made from sugar cane does not require any fossil raw materials or fuels. Even the energy needed for production is obtained from the plant fibres themselves. The result: one ton of Green PE offsets up to 3.09 tons of CO2, thus having a positive effect on the climate.

When many people think of sugarcane, they first think of Brazil and the rainforest - one of the most important ecosystems in the world! But the sugarcane fields in the south of Brazil are located at a safe distance of 2,500 km and are essential for the sustainability and economic power of the country. No wonder, as the plant is very space-efficient, using only 0.02% of the total agricultural land.
The "cana-de-açúcar" is an important pillar of the food industry, fundamental for the production of renewable fuels and petrol - and increasingly becoming the number one resource for responsibly made Green PE.

GREEN PE VERSUS PCR (POST-CONSUMER RESIN)

Post-consumer resin such as rHDPE or rPET are made of plastic waste from private and commercial end consumers. Their 100% recyclability helps to save valuable resources and less plastic ends up in landfill or the ocean even. The demand for PCR is rising steadily, which is currently causing supply chain bottlenecks. However, the material availability of PCR depends solely on mindful plastic disposal by consumers.

Green PE material is also fully recyclable through established systems. Since it is made from renewable, bio-based resources such as sugar cane, it does not require fossil fuels and uses less energy in the production process, while already absorbing CO2 during the growing phase. The availability of the material is very high. We have also recently teamed up with ClimatePartner to offset the remaining emissions of our Green PE bottles with reforestation projects in South America, making them certified carbon-neutral packaging.

We would be happy to talk to you about Green PE and PCR ranges
