Layfield Flexible Films, Proud Member of the Pet Sustainability Coalition

At Layfield Flexible Films, we believe sustainability isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a responsibility. That’s why we’re proud to be a member of the Pet Sustainability Coalition (PSC). This respected nonprofit helps businesses in the pet industry make meaningful, measurable improvements in their environmental and social practices.

For brand owners in the pet care space, choosing a packaging partner who is a PSC member isn’t just a symbolic decision; it’s a strategic one.

What PSC Membership Means—and Why It Matters

PSC isn’t about vague promises or green marketing. It’s about data, accountability, and progress. As members, we have access to tools, benchmarks, and peer collaboration that help us set realistic sustainability goals and track our progress. That means we’re not just saying we care—we’re proving it through third-party-verified actions and shared industry standards.

This level of transparency is fundamental in today’s regulatory environment. It ensures we operate within a framework that values accuracy, clarity, and credibility over broad, unverified claims.

What This Means for Our Customers

As a PSC member, Layfield actively engages in conversations shaping the future of sustainable packaging in the pet industry. This gives our partners a distinct advantage:

  • Access to informed innovation – Our work on recyclable films like Layflex™ 2.0 is shaped by real-world insights into material circularity and end-of-life considerations. We’re designing with recovery in mind—not just recyclability in theory.
  • Expanded sustainable options – From our pre-qualified How2Recycle® packaging to films incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, we offer solutions that are not only technically sound but verified to meet evolving consumer and regulatory demands. These options help brands close the loop and demonstrate tangible action toward a circular economy.
  • Credibility by association – Working with a PSC member assures your brand that your packaging partner is participating in industry-wide efforts to reduce impact and increase transparency.
  • Responsiveness to consumer and regulatory expectations – As consumer awareness around sustainability grows and governments tighten environmental marketing guidelines, working with a partner like Layfield helps you stay ahead of the curve—without the risk of overstated claims.
  • Shared values, aligned goals – Many pet-care brands care deeply about their impact on the environment and communities. Our PSC membership signals that we share those values and are taking practical steps to align with them.

A Commitment to Progress, Not Perfection

Sustainability isn’t a destination—it’s an ongoing process. Through PSC, we are committed to continuous improvement, informed decision-making, and meaningful collaboration. These commitments keep us honest, focused, and ready to meet the real challenges facing packaging and manufacturing today.

We invite our current and future customers to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and partner with us in building better, more responsible packaging solutions for the pet care industry.
