RIPA VERIFICATION
Technical proof for difficult-to-recycle
plastic and packaging structures.
We test, process and document what can be removed, separated or upgraded from complex plastic waste streams — including inks, aluminium layers and residues, odour, heavy metals, plasticizers, selected NIAS and multilayer structures. RIPA Verification provides sample-specific technical evidence before larger investment, industrial implementation or strategic decision-making.
Why Verification Matters
Many recycling decisions are still based on assumptions.
Can the ink be removed?
Can aluminium be removed or separated?
Can odour be reduced?
Can multilayer structures be opened?
Can heavy metals or plasticizers be reduced?
Can NIAS be assessed before further processing or regulatory evaluation?
RIPA Verification turns these questions into documented technical results.
What RIPA Verifies
-
deinking performance
-
odour reduction
-
aluminium removal and separation
-
multilayer separation potential
-
heavy metal screening where agreed
-
plasticizer-related evaluation where agreed
-
NIAS screening where agreed
-
before / after documentation
-
technical basis for further customer-side regulatory evaluation
Regulatory Pathway for High-Value Applications
RIPA Purification is designed to create technically verified material streams for demanding applications such as food-contact related packaging, baby-care packaging and cosmetics packaging.
In tested material samples, NIAS were not detectable in screening after RIPA Purification.
This provides a strong technical basis for further customer-side regulatory evaluation in Europe, the United States and other regulated markets.
For suitable, pre-qualified input streams, RIPA expects a realistic pathway toward high-value regulated applications, subject to the specific material, intended use, migration testing, customer validation and applicable regulatory requirements.
RIPA Verification provides the technical purification, documentation and verification basis required for such decisions.
Service Components
RIPA as a Technical Benchmarking and Project Partner
RIPA supports industry, recyclers, and public programs with robust technical verification for complex packaging and plastic structures.
This includes benchmarking studies, pilot projects, demonstration initiatives, technology comparisons, and project-specific validation programs.
RIPA provides the technical foundation for decision-making, programs, and implementation models.
How We Charge
The pricing logic is based on the actual testing and documentation effort.
Key factors include structural complexity, number of samples, scope of analysis, depth of documentation, and decision relevance.
Larger projects, portfolios, and benchmarking initiatives are quoted individually.
Disclaimer:
All results are sample-specific and refer exclusively to the agreed test scope, documented process conditions, analytical method and detection limits. RIPA Verification supports technical decision-making and customer-side regulatory evaluation. It does not replace legally required approvals, migration testing or authority decisions, unless expressly agreed in a separate scope.
