PCR sustainable recycled materials, including r-PP, r-PE, r-ABS, r-PS, r-PET, etc
What is PCR material?
PCR material literally means: recycled plastic after consumption. Post consumer plastic .
Due to the increasing use of plastic products worldwide, plastic waste has caused irreversible damage and pollution to the Earth’s environment. With the appeal and organization of the MacArthur Foundation (you can go to Baidu to find out what the MacArthur Foundation is for), world-renowned brand companies have begun to challenge the problem of controlling plastic pollution. At the same time, it opened the new plastic economy and signed a global commitment to the new plastic economy.
(Now, with the fermentation of the carbon neutralization plan: advocating a circular economy and reducing carbon emissions, it has inserted a pair of wings for the development of PCR materials.)
Who is using PCR material? Why use PCR?
Among them, we are familiar with well-known brands: Adidas, Nike, Coca Cola, Unilever, L’Oreal, Procter&Gamble, and other well-known enterprises. (PCR materials have been used for a long time: the most mature one is the application of PCR-PET materials (raw materials generated after recycling beverage bottles) in the field of textiles and clothing.) These brand companies have formulated sustainable development plans, which aim to use a certain amount of PCR recycled materials for their own brand products within a certain period of time, reducing the use of new materials, mainly including plastic products, especially flexible packaging. Some brands even set up a 2030 company to use 100% recyclable or renewable materials for all plastic products. (This means that my company used to use 10000 tons of new material a year to make products, but now all of them are PCR (recycled material).).
What types of PCR are currently used in the market?
The main categories of PCR materials currently include: PET, PP, ABS, PS, PE, PS, and so on. Common general-purpose plastics can be PCR based. Its essence is to recycle new materials after use. Commonly known as “back material”.
What does PCR content mean? What is 30% PCR?
30% PCR product refers to; Your finished product contains 30% PCR material. How can we achieve a 30% PCR effect? It is very simple to mix new materials with PCR materials: for example, using 7KG for new materials and 3KG for PCR materials, and the final product is a product containing 30% PCR. In addition, the PCR supplier can provide materials that mix well with 30% PCR ratio.
