Carton packaging, made of low-density polyethylene, aluminum, and paper, was created to store and preserve food characteristics for extended periods without the need for refrigeration during storage and transport. Additionally, being lightweight, it facilitates product transportation. Due to the fact that carton packaging consists of multiple layers of different materials, its demand for recycling is lower due to the detailed recycling process, which can lead to improper disposal in the environment. Based on these experimental results, it is proposed an analytical model to describe the tensile and the flexural behavior. The models allow the estimation of the stress vs. strain curves for any strain rate within specific limits \(\:{\dot{\epsilon\:}}_{min}\) and \(\:{\dot{\epsilon\:}}_{max}\) . Since carton packaging is disposable after use, it is extremely important to find ways to reuse the waste, aiming to increase its recycling and develop a composite that is useful to society.
