Mercian Labels supporting World Environment Day 2025. The background features a green tree growing from a glass globe resting on a human hand, with a butterfly perched on it. The globe is labelled “Mercian Zero.” Surrounding the image are icons highlighting sustainable practices: “Sustainable substrates,” “Zero to landfill,” “No solvents,” “FDA Food safe,” “Recyclable plastics as a preference,” “Advice to maximise recyclability,” “On-site energy generation,” “Label liner recycling scheme,” and “Dissolvable labels.” The image includes the ISO 14001 certification badge and the Mercian Labels logo with the tagline "Made sustainably." A banner at the bottom reads: “World Class Labels – Sustainability in labelling.”

World Environment Day 2025

This World Environment Day, we are taking bold steps towards ending plastic pollution.

 

For many years now our ‘Mercian Zero’ approach has led the way in reducing waste, and with the theme of this year’s World Environment Day being focused on ending plastic pollution, there has never been a more important time to act.

 

Here’s just some of the ways how Mercian Zero is making a difference:

 

Recyclable plastics as a preference – prioritising materials that support a circular economy

 

Sustainable Substrates – reducing reliance on virgin plastics

 

Sustainable alternatives – such as Ocean Bound Plastic which recovers and converts waste plastic into new label material – increasing circularity

 

Zero to landfill – all of our waste is responsibly managed and diverted

 

No solvents – safer chemistry means cleaner production

 

Label Liner Recycling Scheme – repurposing a commonly overlooked waste stream

 

Dissolvable labels – perfect for environmentally sensitive locations

 

Design for recyclability – improving material recovery rates

 

On-site energy generation – lowering the carbon footprint of your labels

 

We are not just focused on reducing waste though, we are constantly pushing the boundaries of label production to support a more sustainable, less plastic dependent future.
