Label-less: new strategies against excess packaging
There are numerous products in supermarkets that have a covering plastic label. The indication on the same often recommends detaching the label from the product to facilitate recycling, since the two packages will be difficult to select if they are made with different polymers. Probably, few consumers follow this recommendation, thus complicating the separation of polymers in recycling centers. But even if we were to correctly separate the labels from the products we purchase, we find ourselves throwing two pieces of packaging in the bin.
