- Foil for collection can be on the roll, off the roll, as sheets, baled or loose
- We recycle any brand of foil - it’s a fully inclusive scheme
- We recycle hot stamping foil, cold stamping foil, digital foil, digital varnish foil, toner foil, textile foil… any foil

The Foil Recycling Process
How do we help foil find new forms?
Recover & Re-Use
The materials we recover (plastic, aluminium and cardboard) are used to make new recyclable products.

How FoilCycle Works For Printers

Join FoilCycle
Get in touch to become a FoilCycle member. It’s an annual subscription based on the volume of foil stock you send for recycling. We’ll discuss the best plan for your business.

Get Your Member Benefits
As well as getting access to the FoilCycle scheme, you will receive an official FoilCycle certificate, and an FoilCycle Annual Statement after each year of membership, promoting your contribution to the sustainable, circular foil economy.

FoilCycle provides boxes, pallets or crates to help its members separate used foils. For high volumes, a mill baling set-up might be required. We’ll discuss the best option when you sign up for FoilCycle.
