Described as a ‘dual-innovation breakthrough’, the AD CleanFlake RFID solution combines Avery Dennison’s proprietary CleanFlake adhesive technology with a patent-pending RFID inlay and label construction.
This is set to ensure that the RFID tags separate cleanly from rigid PET during the mechanical recycling process – thus avoiding adhesive and metal contamination, keeping the PET flakes suitable for reuse, and avoiding disruption to the established PET recycling process.
