Beauty Film® RecyUse – PIR/PCR recycled films, eco-friendly films & bio-films s made from polyolefin, BOPP-films , and films made from 100% sugarcane (bagasse)
Your premier partner forfilms premiumfilms environmentallyfilms and nature-friendly—for the world of today and tomorrow.
Schlichter GmbH does not supply ordinary plastic, but rather state-of-the-art, newly developed, high-quality plastic films for the eco-friendly packaging of all kinds of products.
films s in this product group are typically made of very thin materials and are crystal-clear, extremely tear- and puncture-resistant. They provide the products with optimal protection against dirt and moisture while preserving their original appearance.
In terms of packaging quality and appearance, these cross-linked films also deliver films , high-quality, and sales-promoting product packaging thanks to shrinkage rates of approximately 90%.
This unique product offering from Schlichter GmbH gives you the opportunity to package your products using material-optimized film solutions.

Bioplastic and environmental films
A range of polyolefin films with a certified post-industrial recycled (PIR) content of approximately 50% and post-consumer recycled (PCR) contents of 30% and 50%, as well as other recycled films
*The term “Circular” refers to the product’s design for material recycling and/or the stated percentage of recycled content. Actual recycling depends on the packaging’s structure, collection, sorting, and the recycling infrastructure available in the region.
**In this product line, the term “Bio” refers to the specified percentage of bio-based raw materials. It does not automatically mean that the film is biodegradable or suitable for home composting under natural environmental conditions.
High-quality films with documented material properties
As a supplier of high-quality, highly transparent polyolefin shrink films, scientific research and the ongoing development of recycling-oriented films and films —which contain PCR, PIR, and bio-based materials—remain a constant focus.
As a supplier of modern, recyclable films , our consistently high quality and ongoing development ensure that we meet the highest quality standards and deliver effective, forward-looking, and technically advanced products with traceable, documented material characteristics.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What do PCR and PIR mean in the context of packaging films?
PCR stands for post-consumer recycled material—plastic that has been recycled after use by end consumers. PIR stands for post-industrial recycled material and is derived from production waste. Depending on the variant,films contain certified PIR content of approximately 50% or PCR content of 30% or 50%—and are thus already aligned with the requirements of the PPWR.
What is the difference between RecyUse and RecyUse ?
RecyUse films from renewable raw materials such as sugarcane (bagasse) and are biodegradable. RecyUse films , on the other hand,films designed for maximum recyclability—they contain recycled content and can be fully integrated into existing recycling loops. Which option is right for you depends on your ESG goals and the requirements of your customers.
Are RecyUsefilms and certified?
Yes. All RecyUse-films are multilayer films and are suitable for food contact in accordance with the product-specific declaration of conformity. They meet the requirements of the FDA as well as the relevant EU standards. In addition, the films are GRS-certified (Global Recycled Standard), BSCI-audited, and manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 22000. Certificates are provided upon request.
Can bio-based and eco-friendly films also be processed on existing packaging machines?
Generally speaking, yes.films processed on standard side-sealing machines, angle-sealing machines, and flow-pack machines. They are available as flat film and tubular film, with core diameters of 76 or 152 mm, and optionally with perforation or ESD treatment. We are happy to advise you in advance on specific machine-related questions.

When will the use of recycled content in packaging films become legally required?
Under the EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR), which entered into force on February 11, 2025, declarations of conformity for packaging will become mandatory starting in August 2026. Fixed minimum quotas for recycled content and design-for-recycling requirements will apply starting in 2030. Those whofilms to certified PCR orfilms now will secure early availability on the recycled materials market and avoid future supply shortages.
