Retran® Complies With New Government Environmental Legislation In the October budget, Chancellor Philip Hammond announced the introduction of a tax on plastic packaging that uses less than 30% recycled content. The new Retran® product supplied by Bell has a 70% recycled content which more than satisfies the planned legislation. This material is used to produce Retran® tubing, PET folding cartons, clampacks and formed inserts.
Jetbox® Delivers Improved Presentation for Banners LP Displays are one of the UK’s leading suppliers of POS and printed signage. Responding to a request for a new presentation LP chose square Jetbox® packaging. The challenge was to transport high quality Banners so that they were well protected, easy to open and the outer container be reusable. Traditionally spirally wound mailing tubes would be used for this application however these are difficult to handle and st ore. Responding to the challenge their standard size 64mm x 64mm Jetbox®. Retran® breathes new life into tranparent packaging Following the launch of Retran® in January Bell are delighted to report that almost all of their customers have switched to this recycled form of clear packaging. Retran® is produced using redundant PET bottles and up to 70% of the content is made from used drinks containers. The raw material used to produce Retran® has been trialled extensively and the results show the material is as strong as the standard PET film used to make Jetran® tubing and clear folding boxes. The crystal clear transparency is maintained as only good quality bottles are used from approved sources. The material can be recycled and used over and over again.
