Multi-layer Plastic Packaging

Multi-material flexible packaging is composed of two or more materials joined together with adhesive or wax. By layering different materials together manufacturers can create a package with unique barrier and mechanical properties.

***Wine and distilled spirit or liquor paperboard cartons, bag-in-boxes, & multi-layer pouches*** as of Jan 1, 2024 are eligible for CA CRV. Bag-in-boxes must be intact as a single unit (interior flexible bag attached to spout and exterior cardboard box) to be eligible for CRV refund. Learn more here.
