Sapir Plastics Industries is a manufacturer, committed to the "Green deal" principles. Sapir stretch films are eco-friendly and recyclable products, produced with up to 75% recycled content. The company is actively reducing its' use of virgin raw materials, and is becoming an important participant and developer in the market for secondary raw materials.

Current regulations in Europe set a minimum target of 30% post-consumer recycled content in plastic packaging by 2025, with the overall goal of making all packaging recyclable by 2030 and minimizing the use of virgin raw materials. Sapir Plastics Industries is already ahead of this target, offering sustainable solutions for flexible plastic packaging, such as stretch films.

Sapir Plastics Industries has also proven itself to be a leader in innovation and problem-solving. When the COVID-19 pandemic presented new challenges for businesses and their packaging needs, Sapir Plastics Industries rose to the occasion with a groundbreaking solution and a new patent: the "Defender Wrap". This stretch film not only provides mechanical resistance for the goods during transit, but also offers antibacterial safety thanks to the inclusion of a disinfectant, high ionic activity component (which is non-toxic to humans) that destroys bacteria and micro-organisms. While ionic activity for disinfection is a well-known approach, Sapir Industries has focused on developing a process that maximizes the sheet's ability to disinfect. The result is a revolutionary product.

In conclusion, Sapir Plastics Industries is a company that is committed to sustainability, innovation and quality. By producing stretch films with high percentages of recycled content, using renewable energy and developing solutions, answering the call of time, Sapir Plastics Industries has established itself as a leader in the field of reusable packaging. The company is poised to continue its international growth and success in the years to come. As the company's slogan states: "quality doesn't cost more" - with Sapir Plastics Industries, customers can be confident that they are making a responsible choice without breaking the bank.
