UFlex, India’s largest multinational flexible packaging and solutions company, has partnered with the Indian Institute of Packaging (IIP) Delhi to promote recycling, circular economy and sustainability. As part of this collaboration, UFlex has set up the ideation zone on the IIP campus, which will serve as an interactive space for students, professionals and the public to learn about sustainable practices. The ideation zone was inaugurated by Jeevaraj Pillai, Director – Sustainability, UFlex, today, marking the beginning of a series of educational initiatives aimed at advancing a circular economy.
The partnership between UFlex and IIP Delhi aims to bridge the gap between industry and academia, fostering a deeper understanding of the environmental impact of packaging and the role of innovative technologies in driving recycling efforts. The initiative is designed to encourage young minds to explore sustainability challenges and find solutions that can shape a greener future.
The Ideation Zone is made using recycled materials, including multi-layer plastic and aseptic packaging waste, exemplifying the practical application of circular economy principles in sustainable infrastructure and transforming flexible plastics into a sustainable future. UFlex currently recycles nearly 30,000 MT of plastic waste across Poland, Mexico and India.
