Switch from virgin plastic raw materials to PCR plastic! PCR plastic is plastic that was already used in a product, then recycled to become a recycled plastic raw material. Not only is this a way to keep plastic waste from ending up in the ocean, but it is also a way to limit CO₂ emissions and to use our natural resources wisely.
Burning plastics, even to produce energy, releases large amounts of CO₂. 53% of CO₂ emissions from fossil polyethylene (PE) come from burning it at the end of a product’s lifecycle. Recycling PE as a raw material, on the other hand, requires little energy and ensures a closed material loop with both short and long-term benefits.
At Lamiflex we are continuously increasing the rate of PCR in our products.
