INNOVATION
Evertis is constantly on the search for innovation with materials and industrial technology in order to deliver ground-breaking packaging solutions that focus on a circular economy. We believe that through dialogue with our customers, we can develop solutions motivated by their requirements as well as market trends.
Evertis envisions a world where, thanks to innovation and partnerships, we contribute to the regeneration of our planet and the progress of our people.
Everbio Innovation Hub connects Evertis with the wider IMG Group innovation ecosystem, accelerating the development and industrialisation of circular technologies and products. Located at our industrial site in Portugal, Everbio acts as a collaborative centre where materials science, process innovation and industrial scale come together.
Through Everbio, Evertis strengthens its ability to deliver high-performance circular packaging solutions — combining advanced recycling, recycled and bio-based materials, and scalable manufacturing capabilities aligned with evolving regulatory and sustainability requirements.
By working closely with customers and partners, we translate innovation into practical, market-ready solutions that respond to real industry needs across food, healthcare and other demanding applications.
Increase the recycled content of our products;
Develop solutions fully recyclable within the PET stream;
Advance bio-based materials;
Accelerate innovation from development to industrial scale
Through Everbio Innovation Hub, Evertis continues to strengthen its technological leadership by combining advanced equipment with rigorous quality control to deliver materials with high-performance physical and mechanical properties. We actively collaborate with technology partners and equipment suppliers to co-develop extrusion solutions for PET, ensuring innovation is translated efficiently into industrial-scale production.
By anticipating technological evolution and accelerating commercialisation, we enable cost-effective, high-quality solutions that respond to evolving market and regulatory demands.The technological focus is found in all sectors of Evertis, from our suppliers to our logistic providers, offering our customers solutions with added value.
This technology-driven approach extends across the entire Evertis value chain, from suppliers to logistics partners, allowing us to deliver integrated, value-added solutions to our customers.
Through coextrusion, we combine multiple materials into advanced formulations tailored to specific performance requirements. Supported by our in-house laboratories and state-of-the-art testing capabilities, we develop and validate new materials to ensure they meet customer needs and consistently deliver films that perform to specification.
Evertis delivers tailor-made solutions for packaging that succeeds beyond its basic functionality and responds to evolution. We believe in an obligation to foster sustainability practices that add value to our products and protect our environment, focusing on a circular economy.
The Evertis ECOSEAL™ line of products features recyclable APET films with enhanced sealing capabilities. The perfect solution for a fully recyclable APET mono-material packaging tray. Suitable for Form-Fill-Seal and thermoforming processes in applications such as cheese, processed meat and fresh meat, fish, pizza, and others. Presentation in rolls on a wide range of thicknesses and widths.
Ecobar™ is an APET film designed for superior barrier protection and exceptional sealing capabilities. By replacing the traditional polyethylene (PE) commonly used in PET/Barrier/PE structures with PET, Ecobar™ enables trays to carry the RIC1 code given that more than 90% of the product is PET. Ecobar is available with 50% post-consumer recycled content.
Evertis Ibérica, our industrial site in Portugal, obtained the ECOSENSE Certificate, for the first time, in July 2019, adding value to our products and contributing to an increasingly transparent European plastic industry. The ECOSENSE Certificate is now known as RETRAY and is granted by the Plastic Sense Foundation.
Evertis buys and incorporates post-industrial and post-consumer multilayer PET and reintroduces recycled PET from delamination processes as secondary raw material in our production processes of manufacture of film.
As part of Packaging Europe's Live Week 2020, our Head of Marketing & Sustainability spoke with leaders in the field of packaging sustainability in a live discussion where Evertis shared how we are addressing the biggest environmental challenges faced by the industry.
All of our products are subject to strict and exhaustive quality tests at our in-house laboratories. Our industrial units count on regular maintenance and modernization to assure consistent, high quality of our products.
At Evertis we are cautious when selecting raw materials to guarantee the highest quality of our products. The global partnerships we have created with major raw materials and machine producers, allow our experts to maintain close contact with our raw material suppliers.
Evertis films comply with several regulatory codes and have been accredited with the following quality certificates:
Evertis is currently in the process of obtaining the Environmental Management System certification according to the ISO 14001:2015 standard, in the scope of the production of mono and multilayer plastic films (PET, PET/PE and PET/Barrier Film) by PET extrusion and water-based lamination for food packaging applications and products in general.
Additionally Evertis is in the process of acquiring the same certificate in the scope of the production of PET flake for the transforming industry, through the valorisation of waste.
