2021年4月22日：世界地球日
蘇伊士和利安德巴塞爾拓展與Samsonite合作
攜手推出由回收塑料制成的全新可持續(xù)發(fā)展系列旅行箱
2021年4月22日，適逢世界地球日，新秀麗、利安德巴塞爾和蘇伊士攜手推出了更具可持續(xù)性的全新產(chǎn)品，再度彰顯其致力于保護環(huán)境的決心。蘇伊士和利安德巴塞爾的塑料回收合作公司Quality Circular Polymers(QCP)再次攜手新秀麗，全新打造Magnum Eco系列旅行箱。新系列產(chǎn)品充分利用QCP在高品質(zhì)塑料回收利用方面的專業(yè)能力，其重點是賦予塑料廢棄物第二次生命，減少使用原始材料。
新秀麗以卓越品質(zhì)和堅固耐用著稱，繼2019年推出S’Cure ECO系列大獲成功后，此次又推出由再生塑料制成的全新Magnum Eco系列旅行箱，以保護自然資源。旅行箱行業(yè)領導者新秀麗再次攜手QCP，運用其在塑料回收利用方面的專業(yè)知識，共同完成了新系列產(chǎn)品的構(gòu)想。該系列旅行箱由歐洲團隊設計，并由從荷蘭和比利時收集而來的礦泉水瓶和酸奶杯等生活塑料垃圾制成，大尺寸旅行箱所采用的環(huán)保再生材料相當于483個酸奶杯和14個礦泉水瓶。此款產(chǎn)品采用了創(chuàng)新的Recyclex™技術(shù)，其外殼全部由回收塑料制成，而內(nèi)里材質(zhì)則來自100%再生PET瓶。
全新的Magnum Eco系列體現(xiàn)了QCP和新秀麗致力于開發(fā)利用回收塑料并減少碳足跡的負責任產(chǎn)品的共同承諾。
新秀麗可持續(xù)發(fā)展全球總監(jiān)Christine Riley Miller視這一行業(yè)領先的創(chuàng)新為長遠的環(huán)境保護藍圖中的一部分：“我們不斷尋找新的方法來減少整個業(yè)務的環(huán)境足跡，包括創(chuàng)新產(chǎn)品的制造模式，從而在塑料垃圾的再利用中發(fā)揮我們的作用。”
利安德巴塞爾歐洲、中東、非洲和印度烯烴和聚烯烴高級副總裁Richard Roudeix 評論道： “利安德巴塞爾正在采取決定性的行動來推進循環(huán)經(jīng)濟的雄心，而新秀麗Magnum Eco系列旅行箱是使塑料這一有價值的資源變廢為寶的完美體現(xiàn)。這種回收材料，是來自我們CirculenRecover產(chǎn)品系列的聚合物，為旅行者提供耐用、持久的產(chǎn)品。我們很榮幸能與新秀麗合作，參與這一可持續(xù)解決方案的制定，幫助環(huán)境消滅塑料垃圾，并努力不斷創(chuàng)新，以滿足我們客戶的需求。”
蘇伊士集團歐洲地區(qū)高級執(zhí)行副總裁兼集團首席運營官Jean-Marc Boursier補充道：“我們很高興能夠繼續(xù)與新秀麗合作。研發(fā)能力是集團的關(guān)鍵驅(qū)動力之一，與集團在回收利用高品質(zhì)塑料方面的專長相結(jié)合，使我們在此次全新系列旅行箱的開發(fā)中發(fā)揮重要作用。我們很自豪可以為客戶提供具體的循環(huán)經(jīng)濟解決方案和技術(shù)。對于包括QCP合作公司在內(nèi)的回收再造塑料，我們特別注重確保其可追溯性、合規(guī)性和可持續(xù)性。”
QCP在2020年12月收購比利時的TIVACO塑料回收工廠之后，開啟與新秀麗的這次新合作。新收購的這家工廠每年能生產(chǎn)回收塑料約2.2萬噸， 使QCP生產(chǎn)回收塑料的總能力提升至5.5萬噸左右。
此款全新系列產(chǎn)品售價從169歐元起，共有四種不同的尺寸可供選擇，僅在頂級百貨商店和新秀麗店鋪有售。

April 22, 2021: Earth Day
SUEZ and LyondellBasell extend their collaboration with Samsonite to produce a new range of suitcases using recycled plastics
On the occasion of Earth Day, SUEZ, LyondellBasell and Samsonite reaffirm their commitment to reducing their clients’ environmental footprint by developing even more sustainable products. Quality Circular Polymers (QCP), the plastics recycling joint venture of SUEZ and LyondellBasell, has renewed its collaboration with Samsonite for its Magnum Eco suitcase collection. This new range leverages QCP’s expertise in high-quality polymers recycling and focuses on giving post-consumer plastics a second life while reducing the use of virgin materials.
Building on the success of the S’Cure ECO collection launched in 2019, and in order to preserve natural resources, Samsonite, well known for the quality and durability of its products, has launched its new Magnum Eco suitcase range made from secondary plastics materials. The luggage industry leader turned once again to QCP to benefit from its expertise in plastics recycling and recovery to take part in the conception of this new collection. Designed in Europe, the suitcases are made from household plastic waste from the Netherlands and Belgium, such as plastic bottles and yogurt pots: the large size suitcase incorporates recycled plastic waste equivalent to 483 yoghurt cups and 14 plastic bottles. Using the innovative Recyclex™ technology, the exterior shells are made entirely from recycled plastics and the interior fabric is also developed from 100% recycled PET bottles.
The new Magnum Eco collection illustrates QCP and Samsonite’s joint commitment to developing responsible products that incorporate recycled plastics resulting in a lower carbon footprint.
Christine Riley Miller, Samsonite’s Global Director of Sustainability sees this industry-first
innovation as part of a bigger picture: “We are continuously looking for new ways to reduce our environmental footprint across our operations. This includes innovating how our products are made so we play our part in repurposing plastic waste.”
“LyondellBasell is taking definitive action to advance its circular economy ambitions, and the Samsonite Magnum Eco luggage is a perfect demonstration of bringing this valuable plastic resource back to life. This recycled material, polymers from our CirculenRecover product range, is providing travelers with a durable, lasting product. We are honored to join Samsonite in being part of this sustainable solution to help end plastic waste in the environment, and endeavor to continuously innovate to meet our customer’s needs” commented Richard Roudeix, LyondellBasell Senior Vice President of Olefins and Polyolefins for Europe, Middle East, Africa and India.
“We are delighted to continue our collaboration with Samsonite. R&D, a key driver of growth and differentiation for the SUEZ Group, combined with our expertise in recycling high-quality polymers,
played an important role in the development of this new suitcase range. We are proud to offer concrete circular solutions and technologies to our customers. We are particularly vigilant in ensuring the traceability, compliance and sustainability of the plastics that we recycle, with LyondellBasell, within the QCP joint venture” added Jean-Marc Boursier, Senior Executive Vice President of SUEZ in charge of the France Region and Group Chief Operating Officer.
This new collaboration comes after QCP’s acquisition in December 2020 of TIVACO, a plastic recycling company located in Belgium. With a capacity of processing approximately 22,000 tonnes of recycled plastics per year, this acquisition brought QCP’s total plastic recycling capacity to approximately 55,000 tonnes per year.
The new collection of suitcases, which starts at €169, comes in four different sizes and is exclusively available at leading department stores and Samsonite stores.
