We're all well versed in the importance of recycling, and plastic is one of the materials we’re most familiar with. And there’s good news: According to the British Plastics Federation, the amount of plastic collected and recycled has increased each year for at least the last twenty-five years. ♻️ In 2000, only 13,000 tonnes of plastic bottles were recycled. ♻️ Today, that figure has reached 390,000 tonnes of plastic bottles yearly. ♻️ 81% of post-consumer plastic is recovered. ♻️ 61% of plastic bottles, such as shampoo, bleach and drinks, are collected for recycling We’re proud to play a part in this positive story. Between October 2023 and September 2024, Plan B Management Solutions recycled 7,000 tonnes of mixed plastic bottles and packaging. So how does the process work? Well, we supply UK-based plastic recycling facilities where the materials are processed into different polymers, chemical compounds which are the building blocks of plastics. The materials are then treated further and turned back into a recycled resource to be used in various manufacturing applications. For example, HDPE natural plastic is used to make new milk bottles from recycled material and PET is reused as plastic packaging for drinks and other items. The UK is tenth in Europe for plastic recycling, which means we’re doing well but there is room for further improvement in 2025 and the years ahead.

India's new plastic waste management rules, starting in 2025, will make everyday products from companies like Britannia, Nestle, and Colgate more expensive. These companies will face higher costs because they will need to use recycled plastic for their packaging. This change aims to reduce plastic waste and help the environment, but it will also mean higher prices for consumers. However, companies that recycle plastic or create eco-friendly packaging solutions are set to benefit from these new rules. Pristine is the recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable solution that will empower companies to thrive under new plastic waste rules.

In an effort to revitalize the recycling of waste plastic, the Seoul Metropolitan Government recently announced that it is expanding the items that can be separated from waste plastic. Previously, plastic with foreign substances such as food, stickers, and undersized plastic had to be disposed of in regular pay-as-you-throw bags, but now it can be separated into plastic. The collected plastic can be reborn into new plastic products through material recycling technology or recycled into fuel or chemical raw materials through chemical recycling technology. In particular, high-quality plastic products can be made from single-material and colorless plastic, and composite materials made from a mixture of two or more materials can be made into low-grade products or incinerated to generate heat energy. The value of the same plastic as a resource varies depending on whether it is a single material or a composite material, which is why we are focusing on using 'single material' packaging that is easy to recycle. Biaxially-extended polyethylene (BOPE) is a single-piece packaging material that can replace existing composite bags, such as snack bags and coffee bags, and is emerging as a potential material to reduce plastic waste and increase recycling rates. #BOPE #singlematerial #recycling #plasticwaste #eco_friendly

We are pleased to announce the public release of our 2023-24 Impact Report, which provides a comprehensive overview of aggregated reporting data from CPP Partners in our third year. 📣 Key metrics reported: Target 1: Define a list of plastic packaging that is to be designated as unnecessary or problematic and take measures to eliminate them. 📄 Guidance Document to Support the Elimination of Unnecessary & Problematic Plastics released in April 2024. ❌ In 2023, only 4% of CPP Signatory Partners still had 10 problematic items in their plastic packaging portfolio. Target 2: Support efforts towards 100% of plastic packaging being designed to be reusable, recyclable or compostable. 💡 In 2023, 50% of plastic packaging placed on the market by CPP Partners was designed as reusable, recyclable, or compostable (a 7% increase since 2022). Target 3: Undertake ambitious actions to ensure that at least 50% of plastic packaging is effectively recycled or composted. ♻️ Based on the most current and reliable data available, the national recycling rate in deposit return, residential, and institutional, commercial, and industrial systems is estimated at 16% in 2022, with recycling rates for each waste stream as follows: ICI Sectors: 11%, Residential Sector: 17%, and DRSs: 60%. The national plastic packaging recycling rate of 16% represents a 4% drop from the 20% reported in the 2022 Annual Report as a result of adding data from the ICI sectors, which historically have lower recycling rates. Target 4: Ensure an average of at least 30% recycled content across all plastic packaging (by weight). 🔁 In 2023, the average amount of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content (by weight) across plastic packaging used by CPP Partners was 10%. This is a 2% decline in PCR use from CPP’s 2022 Annual Report. While the report examines the factors behind this, it highlights challenges such as limited access to a sufficient supply of PCR and the higher cost of recycled content compared to virgin resin.

Big news for businesses that use plastic packaging in India! The country, the world's third largest plastic producer, is implementing mandatory norms for plastic recycling and reuse. Here are the key takeaways from an article by Business Standard 🍔FMCG companies will be impacted. The new rules will increase packaging costs for consumer goods companies like Nestle, Britannia, and Colgate. ♻️Focus on sustainability. These norms put India at the forefront of global efforts to tackle plastic waste. ⚙️Opportunities for innovation. Plastic recyclers and companies that develop new, recyclable packaging solutions are poised to benefit. Moreover - ✔️Biodegradable Plastics Get Real: The definition of "biodegradable" goes beyond just breaking down. Now, these plastics must not leave behind harmful microplastics. This strengthens India's commitment to tackling plastic pollution. ✔️Compostable Labeling Gets Clearer: Confusion around "compostable" plastics is over. Packaging labeled as such must clearly specify their suitability for industrial composting and adhere to specific standards. ✔️Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Expands: A new category for biodegradable plastics in packaging has been added under EPR. This means producers will be responsible for collecting and managing this waste stream, promoting a more holistic approach. What Businesses Need to Know: These amendments are not just about the environment; they impact your business too!

🌟🔄 PE + PP = PO: Breaking Down Polyolefin Recycling in the Middle East 🔄🌟 In the world of plastics, #PE (Polyethylene) and #PP (Polypropylene) combine to create #PO (Polyolefin)—a material we encounter every day, from packaging to car parts. But did you know sorting them is key to efficient recycling? 🌍 Here’s how these plastics stack up by the numbers: 🔹 PE (Polyethylene): Known for its flexibility, PE is commonly used in plastic bags, packaging films, and bottles. The Middle East produces an estimated 3 million tons of PE waste annually, but efficient sorting could help recover more than 60% of this for recycling. 🔹 PP (Polypropylene): Tough and durable, PP is found in food containers, textiles, and automotive parts. PP accounts for 20% of global plastic production, and in the Middle East alone, around 1.5 million tons of PP waste is generated annually. Proper sorting could increase recycling rates by up to 50%. 🔄 The Equation: PE + PP = PO When PE and PP combine, they form Polyolefin (PO), a versatile material. Sorting PO back into its PE and PP components is critical for high-quality recycling. By doing this, we could recover up to 80% of recyclable materials from the millions of tons of PO produced in the region each year. ♻️ The Middle East generating around 5 million tons of plastic waste annually, improving PO sorting and recycling is essential for cutting down on landfill waste. This could contribute to saving thousands of tons of plastic from ending up in the environment each year, fueling the region’s progress toward a circular economy. By separating PE and PP, industries can not only reduce environmental waste but also create $2 billion in economic value by reintroducing these materials into packaging, automotive, and textile sectors. 💡Are you working on sorting PO?
