Let's talk about rPET ♻️ PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is widely used for plastic drink containers and packaging because of its versatility and durability. However, making PET from scratch uses a lot of oil – about a quarter of a liter for just one bottle. rPET is the circular alternative. It's made from recycled PET bottles and containers, cutting down on the need for new raw materials. This means a much smaller carbon footprint and 79% fewer greenhouse gas emissions. Impressively, a single PET bottle can be recycled up to 20 times (maybe even more)! Here’s why rPET matters: 🔄 rPET reduces the demand for virgin plastic, conserving energy and raw materials. 🌍 Utilizing rPET minimizes plastic waste in landfills and oceans, contributing to a cleaner planet. 📉 The production of rPET emits significantly less CO2 compared to virgin PET, aiding in the fight against climate change. At TOMRA, we are dedicated to transforming waste into valuable resources like rPET. By this circular alternative, we’re not just recycling – we’re revolutionizing the lifecycle of plastics. Learn how rPET is made and why it’s key for plastics circularity: https://lnkd.in/dhh7NbKy #CircularEconomy #PlasticRecycling #TOMRA

The plastic pollution to the environment, especially to the ocean, has been draw a lot of attention from the public which results some negative impact to the entire value chain of plastic industry. Besides, most of commonly used plastics, such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), etc. are made from fossil fuel as the raw material, including naphtha from crude oil, methanol from coal gasification, etc. Those are all generating heavily carbon emission to the environment, and hence the plastics made from those conventional process is of high carbon impact. Since the material that is made of recycled plastics, PCR (post-consumer recycled) resin provides the efficient solution to plastic wasting and pollution. Instead of being sent to a local landfill, used items such as bottles, milk jugs, buckets, and industrial products can be broken down, melted and reconstructed to make a resin material—PCR plastic, which could be used to remake the products that applied in the area of logistics, consumer goods, etc. As the senior practitioner in plastic industry, we would like to demonstrate circular economy to society and support our customers to contribute to the environment through our tailor-made one-stop plastic recycling solution.

At Salco Products, our unwavering commitment to forging a cleaner, more sustainable future is evident through our dynamic partnership with Operation Clean Sweep. This collaboration serves as a resounding testament to our dedication in tackling the pressing global challenge posed by plastic pellet waste. Operation Clean Sweep stands as a robust global initiative, honing its focus on minimizing pellet loss within the plastics industry. Through a multifaceted approach encompassing education, collaborative efforts, and the implementation of best practices, the initiative strives to staunch the flow of plastic pellets into waterways and delicate ecosystems. These minute plastic particles, colloquially known as nurdles, pose a grave threat to marine life and the delicate balance of ecosystems. Salco Products proudly aligns itself with Operation Clean Sweep, recognizing the imperative role we play in safeguarding our planet for the prosperity of future generations. By actively supporting this initiative, we contribute significantly to the preservation of our environment. Dive deeper into our ongoing endeavors in partnership with Operation Clean Sweep at Salco Products, where our active participation in "The Nurdle Hurdle" initiative underscores our mission to curb the impact of plastic pellets on our delicate ecosystems. Together, let's fortify our commitment to environmental stewardship and usher in a more sustainable tomorrow. #SalcoProducts #OperationCleanSweep #Sustainability #TheNurdleHurdle #EnvironmentalResponsibility

GREENMANTRA paves the way in transforming waste plastics into Sustainable Performance Additives. Our process transcends traditional recycling; it's a revolutionary approach that reimagines how we utilize recycled PP, HDPE, & LDPE plastics by integrating our patented molecular recycling technology with sustainability. 🌍 This groundbreaking approach involves repurposing waste plastic that would otherwise end up in landfills or pollute our oceans to manufacture sustainable performance additives for the #asphaltroads, #asphaltroofing, and #plastic industries. By tapping into the underutilized resource of waste plastic, we not only reduce pollution but also grant this material a valuable second life while significantly decreasing the carbon footprint of these sectors. CERANOVUS® products, made entirely from 100% recycled plastic, substantially reduce CO2 emissions. According to our Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), they exhibit a Global Warming Potential of just 1.33 kg CO2/kg. 💪 The advantages extend beyond emissions reduction. CERANOVUS sustainable performance additives enhance our customers' products and processes in various ways. They contribute to lower formulation costs, more efficient manufacturing processes, and, importantly, elevate the sustainability profile of the final products. 👏 Our tireless efforts in advancing recycling solutions have earned recognition and awards from the Canadian government and accolades from International Environmental Organizations and institutions. These acknowledgments underscore our dedication to the circular economy and our unwavering commitment to safeguarding the environment.

Can the use of #rpet help you to reduce plastic pollution? Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (rPET) is a versatile material that can help reduce plastic waste in landfills and oceans. RPET can be used to make many products, including activewear, outdoor gear, bedding, and stuffing for toys or pet beds. It's also primarily used for food packaging. rPET has many benefits, including: - It can help reduce the amount of #plasticwaste that ends up in landfills and oceans. - RPET production requires 70% less energy than virgin plastic production. #recycling one plastic bottle saves the equivalent of three hours of energy from a 60w light bulb. - By using rPET, companies increase demand for post-consumer PET, which in turn supports more recycling and diverts plastic waste from oceans. - rPET bottles have a lower #carbonfootprint than Virgin PET bottles. - RPET is widely recyclable, reusable, and sturdy. Embracing rPET isn't just about making eco-conscious choices; it's about driving meaningful change for our planet and future generations. Let's take the leap towards #sustainability together!
