The demand for sustainable printing solutions is no longer just a trend — it’s becoming the standard. Print buyers, retailers, and global brands are all looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact, and signage is often one of the first areas they target.
Traditional banner materials, especially PVC-based substrates, come with long-term waste challenges. They’re not recyclable in most municipal systems, they contain harmful additives, and they often end up in landfills after a short-term campaign.
At Sycltex®, we believe it’s time to rethink banner printing — not just for image quality or durability, but for what happens after the banner comes down.
♻️ What Makes Banner Sustainability So Hard?
The truth is, most banners are made for disposability, not recyclability.
Common materials like vinyl (PVC) can take decades to degrade and often contain plasticizers, heavy metals, and other non-recyclable additives. Even banners labeled “eco” often combine multiple layers of incompatible materials, making them nearly impossible to recycle efficiently.
The result? Billions of square feet of printed signage are used once — then trashed.
✅ Sycltex: A Recyclable Alternative That Prints Like a Pro
Sycltex is built to break that cycle.
It uses a clean, polyolefin-based construction with no PVC, no heavy metals, and no toxic plasticizers — making it 100% recyclable in most PE/PP streams. At its core is a lightweight, cross-laminated CLAF® scrim that adds tear resistance without compromising recyclability.
You get:
- A smooth printable surface that works with most wide-format systems
- Dimensional stability for cleaner runs and sharper installs
- A fully recyclable banner that aligns with modern sustainability goals
