Introduction

Sustainability today can no longer be limited to declarations of intent. More and more companies are being asked to demonstrate their environmental commitment through concrete, measurable, and verifiable actions .

This commitment has been officially recognized through the Cycle4Green certification , issued in collaboration with Avery Dennison , which transparently and verifiably certifies the environmental results we have achieved in 2025. This recognition certifies the recycling of 13.5 tons of silicone paper waste , with an estimated reduction of 26 tons of CO₂ equivalent .

A result that demonstrates a real path towards a circular economy.


What is Cycle4Green certification?

Cycle4Green is an international initiative that promotes the recycling and recovery of complex materials, such as silicone-coated paper, which is traditionally difficult to dispose of.

The Cycle4Green certification transparently attests:

  • the quantity of material sent for recycling,

  • the positive impact in terms of reducing CO₂ emissions,

  • the company's commitment to a more responsible production model.

It is therefore not a simple stamp, but a system of traceability and environmental reporting .


The role of Cycle4Green and Avery Dennison

The certification is the result of a collaboration between Cycle4Green and Avery Dennison , a leading global player in the label materials and packaging solutions sector.

This partnership guarantees:

  • rigorous evaluation criteria,

  • verifiable and comparable data,

  • a controlled and sustainability-oriented supply chain.

 

Results achieved in 2025

During 2025, we recycled a total of 13.5 tons of silicone paper , a material that mainly derives from labelling processes and which, if not properly managed, risks ending up in landfill or incineration.


Thanks to this path:

  • 13.5 tons of material were recovered,

  • an estimated reduction of 26 tonnes of CO₂ eq was achieved,

  • the disposal of a complex and impactful waste was avoided.

Numbers that tell of a concrete and measurable commitment, not an abstract one.

 

Why recycling silicone paper is important

Silicone paper is a typical byproduct of the label industry. Its composition makes it difficult to recycle through traditional channels, which is why it's often considered "problematic" waste.

Sending it for recycling means:

  • reduce the use of virgin resources,

  • reduce emissions related to disposal,

  • actively contribute to a circular economy model.

A recognition that goes beyond the certificate

The Cycle4Green certification isn't a point of arrival, but a step on a broader journey . For our label company, it means integrating sustainability into our daily decisions, from the materials we use to waste management, to collaborating with like-minded partners.

It is also a tool for transparency towards customers and stakeholders, who can count on concrete and verified data.

 

Transparency and verifiable data are the foundation of our commitment. The Cycle4Green certification clearly documents the environmental results achieved in 2025. You can download it by clicking below.
