EWING, NJ | vitafusion is the first in the vitamins category to use recycle-friendly shrink film labeled packaging in the United States. Packaging for vitafusion MultiVites 150-count gummies now incorporates shrink labels made with high-performing Eastman Embrace LV resin and Sun Chemical’s SunLam Deseaming Adhesive, converting a previously nonrecyclable package to a recycle-friendly one — with the full vitafusion gummies line converting to recycle-friendly shrink labeled packaging within 2019.
