What is mono material?

Estimated Reading Time: < 1 min

Mono material packaging refers to products or packaging made entirely from a single type of material. Unlike traditional multi-material packaging with various layers, mono material keeps things simple and eco-friendly.

 

Here are some of the most frequently used mono materials in Australian packaging:

–  Polyethylene (PE): This versatile plastic is a popular choice for flexible packaging like pouches and films.

–  Polypropylene (PP): Known for its durability, PP is commonly used for rigid containers like tubs and food trays in Australia.

–  Polyethylene terephthalate (PET): PET is a clear plastic often used for bottles and containers, making it ideal for showcasing products.
