MM Polytrade, the official representative of Versalis S.p.A. in Bulgaria, is proud to introduce a new addition to our portfolio of sustainable polymers – REFENCE®, an innovative range of mechanically recycled polystyrene products, specifically developed for direct food contact.
What is REFENCE®?
REFENCE® is part of the sustainable Versalis Revive® product line and is the result of a collaboration between Versalis and the Italian company Forever Plast, a leader in post-consumer plastic recycling. REFENCE® grades are designed for applications such as:
- Yogurt cups
- Meat and fish trays
- Other rigid and expanded food packaging
Safety and Compliance
REFENCE® meets the strictest regulatory requirements:
- EU Regulation 1616/2022 on food contact materials
- Non-Objection Letter (NOL) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
This is made possible thanks to NEWER® technology, developed by Versalis, which purifies recycled polymers to a level suitable for food-grade applications.
Why to choose REFENCE®?
- Sustainability – made from mechanically recycled post-consumer polystyrene
- Quality – compliant with industry standards for food packaging
- Innovation – part of Versalis’ circular economy strategy to reduce carbon footprint
