ePac partners with RePurpose for recycling initiative

The community-based model that two companies are working on, can be replicated easily, providing a transparent and economically viable solution to the plastic pollution problem by introducing the ability to track and trace every package providing supply chain transparency.

Through the power of digital printing every package produced can be serialized with a unique code that allows it to be tracked from production through reuse. Using IoT/Blockchain technology, data can be collected to provide tracking information to brands and retailers, while educating consumers about the package they just discarded and incentivizing them to practice a sustainable lifestyle.

RPT utilizes patented technology to manufacture products from co-mingled plastics and runs a collection process specifically designed to reduce handling and carbon footprint, RPT’s platform allows direct consumer engagement and traceability to ensure no plastic is left behind.

‘I’m excited to be a part of the team and the collaboration with ePac that allows everyone to take action and be part of the solution,’ said Claudine Osipow, CEO of RePurpose Technologies.

Jack Knott, ePac’s CEO added: ‘The reason we started ePac was to play a small part in rebuilding our communities; our relationship with RPT will allow us to continue in that direction with a reliable, sustainable, and transparent solution.’
