Company Name: rose plastic (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.
Project Name: BlockPack – packaging for precision metal product
Award Category: Innovation Sustainable Product
Product / Service Introduction
BlockPack – packaging for precision metal product
The square plastic tube with TwistLock closure feature and ratchet length adjustment
Highly secure bayonet-type twist lock closure
prevents content from dropping during transportation and usage
requires minimal force in opening and closing, speedy handling, improve work efficiency
With ratchet length adjustment, one tube for different content’s dimensions
reduces packaging sizes to the minimum, save storage and transportation cost
streamlining management
Contoured tube ends, lateral support grooves, and integrated feet to provide a cushioning effect, protect contents be damaged by impact and shock
Ergonomic design, easy to be held in the hand, even with gloves
Sturdy, oil and moisture resistant, reusable, save source
Excellent for stacking and storage
Available with integrated anti
corrosive function, environmentally-friendly due to the reusability of packaging and saving of solvents (no need to spray and remove anti-rust oil)
Product Range:
PE natural, PP transparent or in various attractive standard colors or two-colored
available made from 100% recycled plastic
available made from Bio-HDPE based on sugarcane
Explanation of Circular Economy Practice
Support sustainability and circularity_ product design
1. mono-material packaging solution, allow material for high quality recycling
2. The highly secure twist lock closure gives the packaging extra safety from the mechanism design, but not relying on material weight only. Thus,
Reduced fuel consumption for transportation
Reduced CO²-emissions
Conserved resources
Positive impact on license fees according to German Packaging Law
Meanwhile, requires minimal force in opening and closing, speedy handling, improved work efficiency
3. Free length space helps to reduced waste, and saved resources
Ban of oversized packaging is key requirement of „Plastics Strategy 2020“ of the European Commission
BlockPack from rose plastic with over 350 possible combinations
In addition, each combination also has a length adjustment range, greatly improving spatial selectivity and reduces packaging sizes to the minimum
Support sustainability and circularity_ recycled material solution
1.rose plastic recycled material packaging saves and reuses valuable resources as part of a circular economy approach
2. Economic benefits:
Key requirement of the „Plastícs Strategy 2020“ of the European Commission
UK Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT)
Recyclability will result in cost savings in the future („emulated fees“ German Packaging Law)
China “peaking CO2 emissions” by 2030 and “carbon neutrality” by 2060
3. Packaging made from recycled material protects the environment – twice, because mountains of garbage will be reduced and resources will be conserved
4. The emission of greenhouse gases can be significantly reduced by recycling plastics in comparison to the production of virgin materials: recycling 1 metric ton reduces emissions by 1.2–1.4 metric tons of CO2 compared to producing the same amount of plastics from virgin fossil feedstock.*

Sustainability Certificates & Seals
rose plastic has achieved the Cradle to Cradle certificate for our products made from recycled plastic. This is a globally recognized measure of safer, more sustainable products made for the circular economy.
Our products with at least 80% PCR content have been awarded the Blue Angel, the environmental label of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment. The “Blue Angel” recognizes products that are manufactured ecologically and sustainably and are subsequently returned to the raw material cycle. The entire life cycle of a product is therefore considered when awarding this quality seal.
Support sustainability and circularity_ why plastic?
1. Plastics are lightweight materials, therefor it can reduce the weight of the packaged product, and
Reduce fuel consumption for transportation
Reduce CO²-emissions
Conserve resources
2. Reduce CO2 Emissions & Save Energy Consumption
If all plastic packaging would be replaced by other materials,
Energy consumption in Europe would be 2.2 times higher
CO2 emissions would be 2.7 times higher.
3. Integrated protective barrier make sorting easier
Many applications require an additional barrier layer, which can cause problems later on when it’s time to recycle the packaging. Thanks to the moisture-resistant and oil and grease-repellent properties of plastic, we can dispense with additional barriers and thus help to close the material loop.
Overview of Product/Service Lifecycle
Product Design:
Twist lock closure technology increases safety, and reduces the dependency on material weight at the same times;
Adjustable length increases versatility, saves storage space, and logistics cost;
Plastic is light, durable, oil and moisture resistant. With a mono material could protect product and be put into high quality recycling process;
Use recycled plastic saves and reuses valuable resources. Compared to producing the same amount of virgin plastic, recycling plastic can reduce CO2 by up to 77%.
Production:
The twist-lock-closure design allows using less material based on the packaging safety is ensured. (Taking BK 32 200 as an example, 14% less material is used compared to competitors’ same size tubes);
Packaging made from recycled materials saves and reuses valuable resources;
Recycling 1 metric ton reduces emissions by 1.2–1.4 metric tons of CO2 compared to producing the same amount of plastics from virgin fossil feedstock.
Useage:
Durable and reusable, saving resources and protecting the environment;
Plastic is a lightweight material that can reduce fuel consumption for transportation, reduce CO²-emissions, and conserve resources, save cost;
The twist lock closure technology helps reducing material weight, saved freight cost; also makes the handling speedy and easy, improved work efficiency;
Length adjustable, saving storage space and logistics costs; one tube can be used for products of different lengths, streamlines the management.
Recycling and Recovery:
Mono material, which can be recycled with high quality/efficiency;
Packaging made from recycled materials saves and reuses valuable resources;
Recycling 1 metric ton reduces emissions by 1.2–1.4 metric tons of CO2 compared to producing the same amount of plastics from virgin fossil feedstock.
