Antalis launch 100% recyclable retail hanging signage
Antalis McNaughton’s Sign and Display division has launched Antacote Lite, a 100% recyclable retail hanging signage solution that is 100% recyclable and PEFC accredited.
Antacote Lite has been developed by Antalis McNaughton in conjunction with Germany’s KATZ Group, a manufacturer of recyclable wood pulp products, to meet the increasing corporate responsibility needs of the retail sector. Chris Green, market manager for Antalis McNaughton, said: “Antacote Lite offers a genuine environmental solution for hanging signage. It’s more environmentally friendly than using foam boards, but also much stronger and lighter and unlike standard display board or corrugated products used in retail hanging signage, Antacote Lite remains flat and dimensionally stable.”
All raw materials produced by The KATZ Group are fully recyclable and biodegradable which means that Antacote Lite can be fully recycled along with standard paper and board waste. In addition to helping to reduce landfill, the more environmentally astute retailers have taken to selling the end of life board for recycling purposes. The company said one such major retailer reported a £250,000 saving on waste management following its move to Antacote Lite.
