Why Should All Plastic Film Producers Recycle?

Recycling can be highly advantageous for plastic film producers. It allows you to recycle your factory waste by yourself and use it back in your production line.

Why is recycling plastic important?

How can plastic producers benefit from recycling?

To decrease costs and avoid extracting more natural resources such as virgin materials, plastic producers can add recycled materials to their current plastic production operations. To do this, producers don’t have to buy recycled materials from external sources, they can simply begin by recycling their post-industrial plastic waste and using it back in the production line.

How can plastic producers increase their recycling?

With the increasing demand for recycled plastic materials, some producers have turned to outside-factory sources for recyclable plastics.

In fact, some plastic producers like Ecuador-based plastic producer, Plasticonsumo, have gone a step further and have even begun processing plastic that has already been used by end consumers (post-consumer waste). Producers can collect plastic waste from outside sources and process it to reuse the recycled pellets from post-consumer waste back into plastic film or bag production.

Recycling both post-consumer and post-industrial waste can help plastic producers extend their business while they reduce their costs, use more recycled materials, and complete the circular economy.
