SUPPORTING TOOLS

End2End COO

End-to-end Total Cost Of Ownership approach aimed at identifying and quantifying all direct and indirect potential savings linked to the packaging definition accross all steps in the supply chain.

Circularity Tool

Saica Flex Internal Circularity Tool has been designed to provide a classification based on End-Of-Life for any particular structure. Our tool is based on a scoring system, following recycling guidelines (CEFLEX, PRE, PETCORE…), that have been adapted for Flexible Packaging.

EPR fees estimator

It is used as an initial evaluation of the plastic tax and EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) fees related to a packaging type prior to its design. The estimator provides the Ecofees estimation in the countries where SAICA FLEX is present (Spain, UK, Italy, Luxembourg and Netherlands) but other countries can be also added.
