Assessing Plastic Packaging for a Circular Future
At Penaca, we combine technology, data, and field expertise to redefine how recyclability is assessed in India — building measurable impact across the entire packaging lifecycle.
Holistic Value Chain Understanding
Our assessments are rooted in a deep understanding of India’s recycling ecosystem from waste collection and segregation to reprocessing and reuse. This enables us to evaluate packaging across every stage of its life cycle, ensuring accurate, actionable, and locally relevant recyclability insights.
Risk and Material Compatibility Analysis
We conduct end-of-life assessments to identify risks and challenges in material recovery, contamination, and processing. Each material is analyzed to determine its compatibility with India’s existing recycling infrastructure, ensuring optimized recovery pathways.
Recyclability Certification
Based on our comprehensive evaluations, Penaca certifies whether packaging materials align with national recycling streams. Our certification framework ensures that materials can be effectively recovered, reprocessed, and reintroduced into the circular economy.
Design and Improvement Insights
Penaca collaborates with brands to recommend design-based interventions that enhance packaging recyclability. Our mission is to help companies transition toward sustainable, circular packaging that reduces waste and promotes responsible resource use.
