How to dispose of Soft Plastics
Titan Packaging collaborates with brand owners to create sustainable, fit-for-purpose packaging, including more mono-material and recycled-content options for soft plastics. However, proper disposal by consumers and end-users is key. Some multi-layer pouches, made with different materials, can be harder to recycle.

Soft Plastics RecycleHere’s how to manage soft plastic packaging: Check the Label: Look for a recycling symbol or “Check Locally” note to guide you. Prepare It: Rinse off food or dirt and remove zippers or labels if easy to do. Some packaging may indicate recyclable vs. landfill parts. Dispose Right: If unsure, place in your general waste bin, as recycling isn’t widespread yet. For better options, use special drop-off points—check online or with your local council. Tip: Choose single-material plastics when possible to simplify recycling. Titan Packaging is committed to making recycling easier for you.
