What is the difference between PCW and PIW film?
'PCW' is an abbreviation of the term 'post-consumer waste', whilst 'PIW' stands for 'post-industrial waste'. Although flexible films containing either one of these are greener for our planet, there are differences: PCW films are composed of material that has been through manufacture, consumption and recycling before being cleaned and re-granulated to be repurposed into new films. PIW films are composed of virgin polymers that would otherwise be waste from the manufacturing process.
