Green every day
Arca Etichette has always made sustainability a cornerstone of its future. Every day, we seek production solutions with an increasingly reduced environmental impact. Our environmental philosophy focuses particularly on controlling CO₂ emissions, managing and recycling production waste, sourcing raw materials responsibly, reducing water usage, saving energy, and eliminating polluting materials from our production processes.
We choose recycled, bio-based, biodegradable, and compostable raw materials, FSC® certified paper, or materials derived from natural and plant fibers.
We collaborate mainly with local suppliers who share our ethics to ensure sustainable production processes.
We waste fewer resources, always with a focus on greater sustainability.

OUR OFFER
An innovative raw material lineto stand out from the competition and achieve sustainability goals.
Bio-based material
We offer “bio-based” materials of biological origin (e.g. biomass), made primarily from polymers derived from renewable sources such as corn or sugarcane, with the remaining portion from fossil carbon.
Choosing to use renewable sources allows us to have a lower CO₂ production impact, resulting in an even more environmentally sustainable approach.
PE BIORENEW
Made using up to 98% bio-circular content ISCC certified, it helps to reduce carbon footprint and fossil fuel consumption, making labels more circular.
Since it has properties and appearance comparable to virgin PE, it can be recycled in the same streams as standard PE film.
MARBLE BASE / STONE PAPER
Composed of 80% stone powder (calcium carbonate) and 20% of HDPE (non-toxic high-density resin) which acts as a binder. Stone Paper has a pleasant natural “soft-touch” velvet effect, which makes it unique and usable even without surface finishes.
It can be recycled like plastic. It is waterproof.

Natural sources materials
Partially recycled facestocks deriving from plant fibers, sugarcane and many other natural materials from post-consumer waste. Ideal for those who wish to reduce their environmental impact while creating a handcrafted look for a unique product story.
FSC® certified materials
Liners and facestocks that embrace sustainability. Circular economy plays an important role and gives a greater environmental impact on the shelf. Ask for our FSC® certified products.
COMPOSTABLE
Paired with equally compostable adhesives.
BIODEGRADABLE
Paired with equally biodegradable adhesives.

Recycled materials
White and clear recycled synthetic films.
PE
Made from 100% recycled materials, it
consumes fewer resources, helps to keep plastic out of the waste stream, and gives packaging a more authentic look.
PET
Contains a minimum of 25% post-consumer waste from PET bottles.
PP
Made from raw materials containing up to 100% post-consumer waste.
CLEANFLAKE PORTFOLIO
Enables clean PET bottle-to-bottle recycling. What we have already used can be reused multiple times.

Material reduction
No compromise on efficiency and performance, we use thinner materials and waste fewer resources.
THINKTHIN FILMS
Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by decreasing material thickness.
Only the necessary amount is produced and used. Operational efficiencies include less machine downtime, storage, and transportation.
LINERLESS
Striped Linerless labels in cardboard and synthetic materials (white or transparent polypropylene) come as a continuous roll of adhesive material without a silicone backing, resulting in virtually zero environmental impact by eliminating process waste.
If no waste is produced, recycling is prevented.
