Soudal launches the next generation of sealant and adhesive cartridges, designed to be easy to use and easy to recycle.
Soudal will launch the new cardboard cartridge system across a number of sealant and adhesive products within the well-established Trade Range. The innovative system has been developed as part of Soudal’s commitment towards reducing the amount of plastic waste generated from traditional cartridge-based products.
The system is comprised of easily separated components, for the purpose of sorting packaging elements for recycling. The cardboard cartridge is 100% recyclable, as well as the plastic plunger used to push the sealant/adhesive out of the cartridge. As well as focusing on sustainability factors, Soudal has simultaneously focused on developing a user-friendly experience.
“When introducing products with more sustainable credentials, it is important to ensure it is without compromise of useability and performance.” Explained Jonathan Tanser, Marketing Manager at Soudal UK. “For the market to adopt more sustainable products, it must be a transition with minimal disruption to traditional processes – familiarity is important to our users, offering a convenient change with positive impact on both the environment and user experience.”
“The new cardboard cartridge offers the same known and trusted formulations, in easy-to-use recyclable packaging, applied using a standard cartridge gun and most importantly, delivering the same professional quality finish.”
The roll-out has already commenced across Europe, with the product already trialled across several UK distributors.
