Verdafresh, Inc. develops and supplies proprietary barrier coating technologies that enable the production of fully recyclable, mono-material flexible packaging for food and consumer goods, supporting a circular economy for plastics.
Verdafresh, Inc. is a provider of sustainable, flexible packaging solutions based in Wayne, Pennsylvania. The company specializes in proprietary, high-barrier coating technology that enables the production of mono-material, recyclable packaging. By applying this barrier coating to various substrates, including BOPP, HD-BOPE, MDO-PE, and PET, Verdafresh creates films that maintain essential properties like clarity, stiffness, and oxygen barrier protection while eliminating the need for non-recyclable multi-material layers. Customers can source these solutions either by applying Verdafresh's wet chemistry coatings in-house or by purchasing finished, pre-coated films.
This technology is critical for food and consumer packaged goods companies aiming to meet sustainability goals without compromising product quality or shelf life. By replacing materials like polyvinylidene chloride (PVdC) with recyclable alternatives, Verdafresh helps brands improve their environmental impact and comply with evolving packaging regulations. The company has demonstrated the efficacy of its technology through partnerships and recognitions, including achieving critical guidance affirmation from the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) and becoming an activator of the U.S. Plastics Pact to promote a circular economy for plastics.
