Amcor, a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions, has been recognized with a silver Flexible Packaging Achievement Award in the sustainability category for its Earth Sense Pro Recycled Content Stretch Hand Film. The award was presented during the Flexible Packaging Association’s (FPA) 2026 annual meeting in Orlando, Florida.
“We are proud to be recognized by the FPA for innovations that help our customers reduce their environmental footprint,” said Phil Stolz, president, Amcor Flexibles Converter and Distribution. “This award reflects Amcor’s commitment to advancing more sustainable packaging solutions across our portfolio.”
Amcor’s Earth Sense Pro Recycled Content Stretch Hand Film is an ultra performance solution designed for manually wrapping pallets while significantly reducing environmental impact. Engineered with 30% post consumer recycled (PCR) and 5% post industrial recycled (PIR) content, the film supports secure, stable loads through every stage of transport and storage. Its high load containment capability helps minimize breakage, damage and loss while reducing reliance on virgin materials and helping divert plastic waste from landfills and oceans – supporting Amcor’s progress toward a circular economy.
The film’s downgaugeable structure delivers load containment capability, toughness and ease of application, offering significant lightweighting opportunities without compromising protective performance. Its 28-gauge film offers performance comparable to – and often exceeding – films of twice the thickness, helping maintain wrap integrity while using less material. Its lightweight rolls enhance operator comfort, while the damage-resistant design helps reduce film waste, the company said.
