EarthAware Recycled EZ-Tear AirPouch ® Pillows (RGT) Recycled EZ-Tear AirPouch ® Pillows are manufactured with at least 95% pre-consumer recycled content. These EZ-Tear pillows are designed to provide an environmentally responsible way to protect your products, while providing a cost-effective alternative to other sustainable products when color consistency is a secondary performance requirement. RGT is fully opaque and delivers good durability. Recycled pillows offer excellent printing characteristics, and come in easily recognizable green shades for end-user awareness. The film is part of the EarthAware family of films, which provides environmentally friendly packaging solutions that reduce landfill waste. Like all polyethylene materials, EarthAware pillows can be repeatedly recycled. AirPouch pillows feature our exclusive EZ-Tear Perforations; a patented design that enables quick and easy separation of the pillows allowing the operator to be more efficient and pack with less strain. These unique perforations let more air into each pillow to provide a better yield, lower cost per cubic foot, and less weight per package. Pillows are boxed to reduce changeover rate and allow for an increased run time. In addition, these clean and dust-free pillows do not require a knife or blade to slit the material.

EarthAware Recycled EZ-Tear™ AirPouch® Pillows (RGT)

Recycled EZ-Tear™ AirPouch® Pillows are manufactured with at least 95% pre-consumer recycled content. These EZ-Tear pillows are designed to provide an environmentally responsible way to protect your products, while providing a cost-effective alternative to other sustainable products when color consistency is a secondary performance requirement. RGT is fully opaque and delivers good durability. Recycled pillows offer excellent printing characteristics, and come in easily recognizable green shades for end-user awareness. The film is part of the EarthAware™ family of films, which provides environmentally friendly packaging solutions that reduce landfill waste. Like all polyethylene materials, EarthAware pillows can be repeatedly recycled.

AirPouch pillows feature our exclusive EZ-Tear Perforations; a patented design that enables quick and easy separation of the pillows allowing the operator to be more efficient and pack with less strain. These unique perforations let more air into each pillow to provide a better yield, lower cost per cubic foot, and less weight per package. Pillows are boxed to reduce changeover rate and allow for an increased run time. In addition, these clean and dust-free pillows do not require a knife or blade to slit the material.
