Circular economy


Being committed to and aligned with the concept of the circular economy, Unipac maintains several projects in different segments, within the ideas of conscious product design and utilizing more sustainable technologies and materials. 


In terms of the agrochemical packaging market, Unipac has invested in creating a portfolio that offers customers packaging options that can be recycled for different classes of pesticides, which will increase the rate of recycling within the logistics process system established by the National Institute for Processing Empty Packaging (inpEV). 


The company recently attained approval for the lightest packaging available in the Brazilian market, which is a 20-liter monolayer that is 13% lighter compared to the market reference. From the point of view of sustainability, the company has several initiatives in progress, including producing packaging with recycled resin known as postconsumer resin (RPC).

In addition to its technical capacity in packaging production, Unipac has considerable experience as an in-house supplier. Since the 1990s, the company has operated under this format, providing customized service with efficiency and competitiveness to leading companies in the Brazilian market. 


This operational model requires a long-term and integrated business vision with greater synergy and flexibility. The company's in-house operation ranges from production line to packaging supply according to a customer's needs. Among the partner industries using this business model are Syngenta (Paulínia/ SP), Sumitomo Chemical (Maracanaú/CE) and Alimentos Wilson (Regente Feijó/SP).

Brazil's agribusiness sector has positive prospects despite the current economic slowdown, and Unipac is forecasting growth in packaging demand in the coming years, based on an increase in planted area in Brazil and higher productivity through the use of new technologies and solutions to overcoming resistance to fungicides and herbicides.
