India recovers ~70% of plastics today, yet flexible packaging remains the least recycled stream. Why? Lightweight formats, contamination, and complex multilayer structures make collection and recycling challenging.
But with EPR regulations mandating 20% recycled content by 2027, the industry has no time to wait. The opportunity isn’t just compliance—it’s building India’s leadership in sustainable packaging. At Banyan we have always been the pioneers in this mission.
For 12 years, Banyan Nation has led India’s PCR transformation in rigid packaging:
✅ 2B+ bottles back on shelves
✅ 70+ global brands served
✅ 15,000 waste workers integrated into supply chains
Now, we’re applying the same systematic approach to flexibles.
✅ Supply chains built
✅ Quality proven
✅ Regulation in place
PCR is an acronym that can be used to refer to Post-Consumer Recycled plastic.

It is designed in the direction of maximum safety at minimal material. Flexibles will be produced that are so efficient:
It will be found in almost any industry because it is so versatile:
