The collaboration between Crocco and the Amadori Group marks a turning point in sustainable packaging, demonstrating that innovation and reducing environmental impact can go hand in hand.
Concrete numbers for a greener future
After four years of research, testing and optimisation, the strategic partnership between Crocco and Amadori Group has achieved significant milestones in packaging sustainability:
- 20% reduction in material used per pallet.
- 19% reduction in CO₂ equivalent compared to 2021 levels.
- Unchanged product protection and load stability.
8-micron stretch film: the core of success
The new 8-micron stretch film, the result of intensive R&D efforts, represents the ideal balance between:
- High performance: maintaining the same level of product protection and load stabilization.
- Environmental sustainability: significantly reducing the use of plastic materials.
- Operational efficiency: without compromising existing logistics processes.
Data-driven eco-design
This project is a concrete example of sustainable innovation, driven by:
- Data-driven approach: every decision supported by thorough analysis and precise measurements, ensuring verifiable results.
- Supply chain collaboration: success achieved through close technical cooperation among all stakeholders, from research to distribution.
- Greenside certification: guaranteeing transparency and credibility in environmental measurements.
Ongoing research for new milestones
Crocco’s R&D laboratories are already working on new formulations to:
- Further reduce film thickness.
- Maintain high standards of performance and reliability.
- Explore new solutions for ever more sustainable packaging.
Sustainability without compromise
This partnership demonstrates that ecological transition in packaging does not require sacrifices in efficiency or product protection. Through a scientific and collaborative approach, it is possible to achieve:
- Measurable environmental benefits.
- Maintenance of operational performance.
- Value creation throughout the supply chain.
The path towards ever more sustainable packaging is clear: continuous innovation, strategic collaboration and rigorous measurement of results are the ingredients of a success that aims to redefine industry standards.
