The Challenge

Hospitality operators and suppliers are under growing pressure from multiple directions:

Brand and customer expectations around sustainability
Growing scrutiny of packaging choices and waste practices
The need to maintain strict food safety and hygiene standards
Tight margins that leave little room for cost increases

At the same time, many “sustainable” packaging options either:

Aren’t suitable for back-of-house use
Create confusion around end-of-life outcomes
Or introduce higher costs without clear benefits

The challenge isn’t intent — it’s finding solutions that work operationally and commercially.

Without practical, verified alternatives, hospitality businesses risk brand exposure, procurement pushback, or introducing unnecessary compliance risk.

PCR Platform

ReCree8® PCR solutions for hospitality operations

ReCree8® is thinkpac’s post-consumer recycled resin platform, produced from 100% recycled post-consumer soft plastic waste and independently verified under a GECA licence.

In food service and hospitality environments, ReCree8® is well suited to applications such as:

Back-of-house bin liners and waste bags
Printed bin liners with sustainability messaging
Broad range of packaging used across kitchens, prep areas, and facilities

These solutions allow hospitality operators to demonstrate progress on sustainability without introducing operational or compliance risk. Where food-contact requirements apply, we remain pragmatic — using virgin materials where necessary and PCR alternatives where appropriate.
