The year 2026 marks an important turning point for StickerGreen.
From our workshop in Jarnac, we have always sought to reconcile two strong requirements: product performance and environmental responsibility. Today, we are taking a new, structural step in our development.
A strategic choice: switching to PET / rPET
Historically, the durable sticker market has relied primarily on PVC, a high-performance material that is difficult to recycle.
In 2026, StickerGreen is continuing its transition toward a mono-material PET / rPET complex, enabling:
-
better material consistency,
-
increased integration of recycled plastic,
-
enhanced compatibility with material recovery channels.
Our goal is clear: to significantly increase the share of recycled plastic in our stickers, while maintaining outdoor durability of over 5 years.
We do not just want to offer a “less bad” sticker, but a product designed to be more virtuous from its inception.
Transforming our waste instead of enduring it
A clear fact has emerged in the sticker industry: approximately 50% of the material used in production becomes scrap (trimming, margins, die-cuts).
At StickerGreen, this now represents more than a ton of waste per year.
In 2026, we are investing in the design of an in-house separation machine capable of dissociating:
-
the adhesive PET / rPET film,
-
from the silicone-coated paper liner.
Once separated, these two materials become recoverable via adapted channels.
This project profoundly changes our industrial logic:
We are moving from “managing our waste” to “transforming it into new resources.”
This machine will be designed and integrated directly into our workshop. It is part of a simple approach: acting concretely at our own scale, without waiting for hypothetical external solutions.
Strengthened local roots: investing in the Charente forest
In parallel with our industrial actions, StickerGreen wishes to strengthen its territorial commitment.
In 2026, we are planning the acquisition of several hectares of forest in Charente (about 2-5 to start).
This investment has several objectives:
-
contributing to the preservation of local natural heritage,
-
supporting the sustainable management of forest areas,
-
participating in long-term carbon sequestration.
We are aware that carbon neutrality cannot be achieved simply through offsetting. This is why this forestry commitment comes to complement a real reduction at the source, not as a substitute.
Performance and customer satisfaction: a maintained standard
Environmental responsibility only makes sense if quality remains a priority.
Since January, StickerGreen has been ranked #1 on Trustpilot in the sticker manufacturer category.
This recognition reflects the trust of our professional and individual clients. However, do note that the second-ranked company has 60,000 reviews, while we have about 500.
In 2026, we will continue to invest in:
-
latest-generation printers,
-
optimizing our lead times,
-
printing and finishing quality,
-
a responsive and human customer service.
Our ambition is simple:
to offer the most reliable stickers on the market, while continuously improving their environmental impact.
A clear trajectory for 2026
The year 2026 will therefore be structured around three pillars:
-
Material improvement: scaling up PET / rPET and increasing the rate of recycled plastic.
-
Waste recovery: integration of a separation machine to truly recycle our production scrap.
-
Territorial commitment: investment in the Charente forest, with a long-term approach.
StickerGreen continues to move forward with the same conviction as at its inception:
the ecological transition is not just about words; it is built through concrete industrial decisions.
Thank you to all our customers and partners who enable us to develop this market step by step.
2026 promises to be ambitious — and we look forward to building it with you.
