Taghleef Industries Elevates Sustainable Labeling with Launch of Floatable White Polyolefin Shrink Sleeve Film

In a bold step toward circular packaging innovation, Taghleef Industries has expanded its acclaimed SHAPE360® portfolio with the introduction of SHAPE360® TDSW, a cutting-edge white polyolefin TD shrink sleeve film that combines brilliant visual appeal with industry-leading recyclability.

Designed to meet the growing demand for sustainable yet high-performance labeling solutions, SHAPE360® TDSW offers optimal opacity and a high gloss finish, making it ideal for PET and PE containers across a wide range of consumer goods from dairy beverages to natural ingredient-based products.

But what truly sets TDSW apart is its floatable design, a sustainability game-changer in the labeling industry. Thanks to its low-density polyolefin structure, the film naturally separates from PET flakes during the recycling process, enabling cleaner material recovery and preserving the quality of PET recyclate for bottle-to-bottle reuse.

“This new white polyolefin shrink sleeve film represents a significant leap in labeling innovation,” said Diana Dedeic, Product Manager at Taghleef Industries. “It builds on the proven performance of our SHAPE360® range and meets the market’s need for thinner, floatable, and recyclable solutions without compromising on visual impact.”

The SHAPE360® TDSW film joins a growing portfolio of shrink sleeve solutions from Taghleef, which already includes clear films in 50, 45, and 42-micron thicknesses each engineered to support modern packaging sustainability standards. With TDSW, brands can now enjoy the benefits of white full-body sleeves while maintaining compatibility with existing recycling infrastructure.

Highlights of SHAPE360® TDSW :

  • Light Barrier Protection: Shields light-sensitive products like dairy and natural beverages.
  • Recyclability First: Fully floatable for clean PET recycling; compatible with PO streams when used on PE containers.
  • Versatile Printability: Supports both conventional and digital printing methods with strong ink adhesion.
  • Shrink Versatility: Adapts seamlessly to complex container shapes for standout shelf presence.

This latest innovation underlines Taghleef Industries’ continued leadership in sustainable labeling technologies, empowering brands to balance visual differentiation, recyclability, and environmental responsibility.

As global sustainability goals accelerate, SHAPE360® TDSW offers a timely solution one that delivers function, beauty, and a lower environmental footprint in a single label film.
