    Greenyl uses SKYPET® from SK Chemicals from ALBIS Portfolio for sustainable vinyl records

    ALBIS and Greenyl, an Italian manufacturer of sustainable “vinyl”, have worked closely together to develop an answer to the growing demand for eco-friendly solutions in the record industry. By using a SKYPET® CR grade from ALBIS’ partner SK Chemicals, Greenyl has already been able to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of its records. By choosing a material that is not only recyclable but also already contains a chemically recycled content, Greenyl is also making a contribution to the circular economy.

    To counteract the high environmental impact from traditional production with pressed PVC, the Milan-based company was searching for a more sustainable solution suitable for its innovative and resource-saving process. ALBIS assisted in the choice from its sustainable portfolio, which fell on a SKYPET® CR type from its trusted partner SK Chemicals.

    Containing up to 99 percent chemically recycled PET waste, the use of SKYPET® CR results in a significant saving of 7.1kg CO2e/kg compared to PVC. A sustainable drop-in solution because the material used also strengthens the circular economy beyond the end of the product’s life: Greenyl’s SKYPET® made records therefore can also be fully recycled and reused.
