There’s been a lot of noise about plastic packaging, but the real question isn’t whether to use plastic, it’s which plastic you’re using and whether it can actually be recycled.
J-Tech’s strip bands and wine glass tags are now available in single substrate PE/PE construction. That means one material, no mixed layer contamination, and full compliance with current and emerging retail mandates.
It’s the same format you already know, just built for what’s coming next.

It’s a small label with a big environmental story certified for home and industrial composting, safe for food contact, and strong enough to survive the full journey from packhouse to retailer.
As the exclusive Australian distributor of Sinclair labels, J-Tech gives you access to the most advanced compostable fruit label on the market. It applies cleanly, stays on through handling and transport, and then breaks down without residue.
As states move to restrict non-compostable PLU stickers, this is the solution that keeps you compliant, supports a circular economy, and tells a better story to your retail customers without changing how you label.
Material: Compostable film (T55) | Australian AS 5810 Compost Standard
The Compostable Label Story After 17 years of development, Sinclair launched a certified home compostable fruit label that meets the highest global standards AS 5810, EN 13432, and certifications from TÜV Austria, DIN CERTCO, and the ABA.
It’s designed to break down safely in home compost within 365 days with no harmful residue. Unlike typical biodegradable labels, Sinclair’s compostable label is verified for full end of life performance including its ink and adhesive. It’s food safe and can be applied at high speed, even in challenging packhouse conditions.

Ethylene is the silent culprit behind premature ripening, soft fruit and shortened shelf life. Greenkeeper sachets quietly absorb it inside the pack, slowing the ripening clock so your produce reaches the shelf in the condition it left the packhouse. No gases, no fuss, just a simple, proven way to cut waste, protect quality and get more days out of every consignment. Future ready freshness, working hard in the background.
