06 May 2019 --- German chemical and consumer goods company Henkel is set to launch a fully recyclable black plastic bottle for its Bref products. The new packaging material – developed by specialist plastic supplier Ampacet – uses an alternative carbon-free black color, enabling used bottles to be detected by recycling facility infra-red (NIR) optical sensors and integrated back into the value chain. It will be introduced for black bottles of toilet cleaning products under the Bref brand this month, followed by further Henkel products throughout the course of this year.
