• AD CleanGlass™

Known for its high collection rate, glass packaging can be easily recycled and returned to help create a more circular economy. You just need the right labeling solution to help enable it. That’s where our AD CleanGlass™ portfolio of paper and film label technologies shine.

Labels that enable cleaner recycling and reuse

When making packaging choices for glass, choosing the right label can enable or hinder reuse and recycling. Our AD CleanGlass label and adhesive portfolio offers the same design freedom as standard labels, enabling clean separation of the label from glass during the recycling or washing process. We also offer permanent labels using multicycle technology that enables full package reuse and reduces the amount of glass sent to landfills. 

AD CleanGlass Decision Tree

       

Technology that enables one-way glass recycling

Choosing the right label for your glass packaging can help you meet your sustainability goals. Our AD CleanGlass label technology features an adhesive that separates the label from glass cleanly during the recycling process. Together with other light contaminates, it's removed from the glass recycling stream altogether, resulting in a higher quality recycled glass.

Maintain your glass packaging for reuse

In cases where you want to reuse your glass packaging but need to replace the label, our AD CleanGlass wash-off is an excellent solution. Our technology facilitates easy label removal with no adhesive residue, resulting in clean glass packaging that you can easily reuse for rebranding or re-labeling.

Reuse glass packaging again and again and again

Want to get the most out of your glass packaging? Our MultiCycle™ technology is a permanent no-label look solution that can withstand 30+ washes in 80°C caustic baths, meaning you can sterilize and reuse your packaging again and again with the same label. Unlock the power of connected packaging with digital ID technology such as UHF RFID to facilitate easy returns.

        

Sustainable freedom of design

Recycling and sustainability regulations have reshaped how to choose the correct packaging and labels for your products, but that doesn’t mean you have to compromise on design or quality. AD CleanGlass offers the same design freedom and quality as standard paper and film labels and reduces the amount of glass sent to landfills. Best of all, these solutions don’t require special equipment to process, making the switch from traditional labels to more sustainable options effortless.
